Jazak Allah (Arabic: جزاك اللهُ) or Jazak Allahu Khayran (جزاك اللهُ خيرًا) is a term used as an Islamic expression of gratitude meaning "May Allah reward you [with] goodness." Allah is the Arabic word for God.
One of the best forms of du’aa’ for the one who has done you a favour is
that which is mentioned in the Sunnah:
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever
has a favour done for him and says to the one who did it, ‘Jazak Allaahu
khayran,’ has done enough to thank him.”
[Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1958 & 2035; Abu Dawood (1672) and by
al-Nasaa’i in al-Sunan al-Kubra (6/53); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in
Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.]
How to Reply to Those who says Jazakallahu khair to you:
1) Wa Antum fa Jazakumullahu khayran meaning (وَأَنْتُمْ فَجَزَاكُمُ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا)"And you too, May Allah reward to with Khayr"
✰Evidence from Sunnah:
Usayd ibn Hadayr (sahabi)
says: I said: O Messenger of Allah جزاك الله خيرا [Jazaakallhu Khayran]
The Prophet(pbuh) said: وَأَنْتُمْ فَجَزَاكُمُ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا [Wa Antum Fa
Jazakumullahu khayran] And you too, May Allah reward to with Khayr].
[Shaykh al-Albaany has
said that the Hadeeh is Saheeh. al-Saheeha 3096, al-Ta'leeqaatul hisaan al
Saheeh ibn Hibbaan 6231]
2) Wa iyyakum (وإياكم)” meaning “And
goodness to you also”
✰This is the one the
common message used by people. Muslims can use this phrase sometimes, and
abandon it sometimes, but they must not cling to it as if it is an established
Sunnah of the Messenger since there is no evidence related to it.Although the common Arabic word for thanks is shukran (شكرًا), jazak allahu khayran is often used by Muslims instead, in the belief that one cannot repay a person enough, and that Allah is able to reward a person the best. Often the response to jazak allahu khayran is wa ʾiyyakum (وإيّاكم), which means "And to you". A more formal reply is "w-antum fa-jazakum allahu khayran" (وَٱنْتُمْ فَجَزَاكُمُ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا) which means "And you too, may Allah reward you with goodness"
