Islamic Phrases

In sha' Allah
When a person wishes to plan for the future, when he promises, when he makes resolutions, and when he makes a pledge, he makes them with permission and the will of Allah. For this reason, a Muslim uses the Qur'anic instructions by saying "In Sha ' Allah." The meaning of this statement is: "If Allah wills." Muslims are to strive hard and to put their trusts with Allah. They leave the results in the hands of Allah.

Duas from the Quran

Our Lord! Pour out on us patience and constancy, and make us die as those who have surrendered themselves unto You. (7:126)
