Islamic belief | Why Muslims say Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar and Insha Allah

With the chant of اَللّٰهُ اَكْبَرُ (Allahu Akbar), Muslims acknowledge His Glory and Majesty. When Muslims have a wish in their hearts, they say "Insha Allah!" and declare that nothing will happen without Allah's (swt) will. Muslims express their congratulations and appreciation with "Masha Allah!" and "Barak Allah!" By saying, اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ (Alhamdulillah), Muslims thank for His offerings and blessings.

Muslims rely on Him (swt) in all circumstances and conditions by saying, الْوَكِيلُ حَسْبُنَا اللّٰهُ وَنِعْمَ (Hasbunallahu wa ni'mal wakil), meaning "Allah alone is sufficient as an aid for us. He is the best Protector."[i] [i] Al-i 'Imran, 3/173.
