It means "May Allāh reward you [with] goodness." Allāh is the Arabic word for God.

Faith is the greatest treasure and you captured it well in this poem. You're right, faith does not have to plot a course as it is something that searches for freedom, peace and God in its wondrous journey within our cosmos and our soul. Well done, Brooke.

Brooke, I enjoyed your quatrain on the theme of "faith." Your format of questioning the metaphorical possibilities of faith is clever and well done. A wonderful piece of rhymed verse.

Comment from Trybuck
It's been written for all to read
Faith as small as a mustard seed
Can remove mountains from our eyes
For the questions asked, I have to surmise
Faith without love can do little
Might as well be playing a fiddle
But faith with love packs a powerful punch
Raises the dead and even provides lunch
Very well done, Buck
