Hello I'm teacher of arabic language if you want to learn Arabic language send me a message i can help you
That mean I'm so happy for you ، I hope you be more better too and Allah bless you and save you. In Arabic للامام ان شاء الله ربي يحفظك
It's an expression of appreciation or gratitude for something good or beautiful that has happened or been observed. It can be translated as " God has willed it" or "God has desired".
Mash’allah or sometimes written MSA as an abbreviation literally means the will of god. But it is used in our daily life in order to evade envy whether it is used by the person afraid of being envied over something they achieved or bought. Or used by someone when they see something great in the hands of another person or someone got promoted to a new position for instance and I am afraid I may envy him a little. We are ordered to say Mash’allah la hawl w la qowa ila bellah ( god willing, and there is neither might nor power except with god ) whenever we see any blessing bestowed upon anyone as a reminder that it is god who granted it and able to grant us all.
It's used to express how happy other people are about your success or something nice that happened to you, and it means that they wish you more success or happiness or anything else.
It means “God has willed it” and used past tense. It is commonly used as a way to be thankful to God for an event that has occurred in someone’s life. For example, a friend is sharing with you that they got a new job. You would reply “Mashallah, that is so wonderful!”
