Insha'Allah, No, Maybe So
Rhonda Roumani, Nadia Roumani
Ranya wants to go to the park, have a sleepover, bake cookies, and visit Disneyland. Her mother often answers with “insha’Allah,” which Ranya initially understands as a refusal. Her mother explains that the phrase expresses wanting something to happen while not knowing whether it can. As they talk, Ranya learns why plans sometimes change, including when work runs late or the weather prevents an outing.
