Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilayhi Raji'un (Khat Thuluth). (Arabic: إِنَّا ِلِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ, ʾinnā li-llāhi wa-ʾinna ʾilayhi rājiʿūna), also known as Istirja (Arabic: ٱسْتِرْجَاع, ʾIstirjāʿ), is a Quranic command for Muslims, mentioned in the second surah of the Quran,[a] and meaning "Verily we belong to Allah and verily to him do we return."[1] The phrase is commonly recited by Muslims, especially upon hearing bad news that has fallen upon themselves or another, both as a sign of patience and an acknowledgement that God is the almighty, and he will not test his worshippers more than they can bear. It is also usually used by Muslims when someone dies.
