I have only converted to Islam roughly a month ago, so I could be wrong, but as i understand it

inshaallah = if god wills / god willing.
this is usually used if time is a factor, as in I'll see you tomorrow inshalallah.. if Allah wills it.

Subhan'Allah = glory be to god

Alhamdulilah = thanks and praise are due to Allah
(i use this one to thank god for every time i realize a blessing he has given me)


swt means "glorified is he" in english i think.

pbuh is another common one that follows prophets in parentheses, it = peace be upon him.

I haven't seen ra yet.


I cannot post outside links since i don't have the post count. but google "Islamic dictionary". You should find a site near the top that's a search engine for Islamic words.



May your search in knowledge be fruitful.

Assalamu Alaikum,

on the other hand, what does (swt) and (ra) mean in english?

RA stands for Radiya Allahu Anhu/Anha. It is used whenever a name of a companion of the Prophet is said or written. It means "May Allah be pleased with him/her."
