"en shaa ALLAH" means "if God wants" or God willing, but "enshallah" is 
a shorter form used in Egypt to mean "hopefully", again hoping in God"s 
will. We Muslims are ordered to say inshaa ALLAH after any intention 
for the future, because we believe that nothing can happen unless God 
wants it to happen.Thanks, Aliaa
