what's a shayla? I saw this comment elsewhere too, so now I'm curious
Sound audio abt a man fighting custody for his child
Some arabic/islamic word! "In shallah" = by God's will. And "Mashallah" (not my shaylaa) = something along "It shall happen as God said".
Now, if someone people with 0 understanding of Arabic are misusing this saying/prayer, it is beyond me.
no no seriously his child is called Shayla and in the video he's crying and saying "my Shayla" and then showing his hoodie that says her name.
Emphasis 'Shayla' is the little girls name
people use it now to describe a person or belonging that means a lot to them as well
and say "my Shayla"
Shayla is pronounced Sh-aye-Lah
different to the 'Mashallah' in Arabic Marsha-Al-Lah or sometimes Mar-sha-Lah for people who can't pronounce or say it just correctly
Oh. The meme.
What are you going on about? Some people want something to be offended about, honestly.
What do you even mean? Who is offended? About what?
"Now, if someone people with 0 understanding of Arabic are misusing this saying/prayer, it is beyond me"
The guy was just giving context as requested. It was you who wanted to show off your knowledge and your bad mood bruh
If someone is in a bad mood is maybe you and Juniper. Ariel who explained did not respond with tension, but you both did.
I meant to answer the first reply and accidentally replied to the other user. I gave an explanation based on my understanding and, from my experience, people use "Marshallah" (also write it however they hear it) for a lot of things, even for "Yah! You scored a nice girlfriend".
So, naturally, I simply stated the limit of my understanding by saying "it is beyond me". The other user explained and I simply realized I might have misunderstood by saying "Oh. The Meme".
Without surprise, I have no understanding on why you guys want to force the idea that I am offended or upset over this. Like. Is there even a reason to be mad? I don't even understand why you want to make it look like I am mad.
Take it with a grain of salt? Not everyone is angry everyday. Some people are just chill.
But I'm not in the discussion, I'm just explaining the facts!
Maybe the meaning differs in your language but the translation of your sentence in mine (and probably his) sounds rude
And let's not kid ourselves, people are on edge about certain things, it wouldn't have been surprising if someone got upset about that.
" I'm just explaining the facts!" How is that factual to tell me that I am in a bad mood because you misunderstand my tone?
" let's not kid ourselves, people are on edge about certain" So, you generalize.
I have a better idea. How about we drop the offended/bad mood allegations? Because it is not true. As far as I am aware, I know myself better than you do.
Better yet, let's stop this pointless discussion.
There were 2 of us who misinterpreted it, the probability that you were upset was higher
I generalized yes, then again 90% of the time it turned out to be true
Projecting your feelings on me won't make me feel things I don't. Like you said, "let's stop this pointless discussion." No need to argue for the sake of arguing.
Just a tiktok sound, is a pretty big meme now, voice of a man crying "my shaylaaa*
My shaylaaaaa
