۞ Islamic frames and symbols
What are Islamic phrases?
Islamic phrases are Arabic expressions Muslims use every day to remember God, give thanks, greet others and make requests. Many come from the Quran and the Prophet's tradition, and they're repeated all over the world, whatever language people speak.
On this page every phrase comes in three layers: the Arabic text with vowel marks (harakat), the transliteration in Latin letters for anyone who doesn't read Arabic yet, and the meaning in English. Use the buttons to copy just the Arabic or everything together.
Dhikr: remembering God
Dhikr means “remembrance”. It's the practice of repeating phrases like SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah and Allahu Akbar, often after prayers. A common tradition is reciting SubhanAllah 33 times, Alhamdulillah 33 times and Allahu Akbar 34 times. The counter above helps you keep track on your phone, like a digital tasbih (masbaha).
Greetings and replies
The best-known greeting is Assalamu alaikum (“peace be upon you”). The reply is Wa alaikum assalam. To say thanks, many use Jazakallahu khairan, and to praise something beautiful, MashaAllah, a reminder that everything comes from God.
Ramadan, Eid and Friday
During Ramadan people wish each other Ramadan Mubarak or Ramadan Kareem. When the fast ends, Eid al-Fitr is celebrated with Eid Mubarak, and the same greeting is used for Eid al-Adha. On Fridays, the day of congregational prayer, many send Jumu'ah Mubarakah. Use the card maker to build the message with someone's name.
Tip: Arabic is written right to left. In apps with weak Arabic support, vowel marks may separate from letters. If that happens, try another app.
Using these phrases respectfully
These expressions carry religious meaning for more than a billion people. Use them respectfully, avoid joking contexts and, when quoting Quranic verses, check the text in trusted sources. The translations on this page are approximate, to help with understanding.
