"Mashallah" is an Arabic phrase that translates to "as God has willed" or "what God has wished." It is commonly used by Muslims to express appreciation, joy, or admiration for something good, such as a person's achievements, beauty, or blessings. The phrase serves as a reminder to acknowledge God's role in the positive aspects of life. In many cultures, particularly in the Middle East and among Muslims worldwide, saying "Mashallah" is also a way to ward off the evil eye. By attributing success or beauty to God's will, it helps prevent jealousy or envy from others.
