Common Arabic Phrases Translated
#1

Salam alykum,


I do not speak arabic, but I try to learn it as I see it.


So far, I know the what the following mean:


salam


salam alykum


jazekallah khair


allahu akbar


But there are other words and phrases that I see very commonly among these boards. Such as:


wa alaikum asslam wa rahmt allah wa barakath


wa moutasimah


and others.


I was wondering if someone could tell me what they mean?? I know there are websites that attempt to teach you common arabic words, but I am just looking for the phrases that I see so frequently on this forum.


jazekallah khair!

assalum allykum wa rahmat allah wa barakath


joshua you already now the above right .


and the answer to the upper greeting is:




Quote:wa alaikum asslam wa rahmt allah wa barakath

it means : and peace be upon you and allah's mercy and his blessings.




Quote:wa moutasimah

well this is a saying it has a story , but we don't use this saying much here.


moutism : is an ancient khalifah - ruler-


wa : it's used for calling someone when you're in danger or acritic situation. it means = HEY.


SO THE WHOLE FRAZE IS A CALL FOR HELP FROM THE KHALIFAH BY A WOMAN IN NEED.


HEY MOUTSIM


jazak allah khair joshua
