Important ! In Recent Years Especially This Year Ive Noticed A Lot That The Internet Language Picked

important ! In recent years especially this year I’ve noticed a lot that the internet language picked up so many Islamic phrases and, from a muslim perspective, it makes the internet a little more welcoming. the thing is, a lot of the time with Islamic phrases you have to be careful about when and where to say them they hold their own weight and demand their own respect so here is a list explaining each phrase and some notes about it.

In sha allah

It means “ If God wills “. It’s mostly a response that can mean yes or no. If someone asks you to do something you can say in sha allah as in “ I heard you and I’ll try to do itc but I can’t claim that It will happen “ . Muslims say it because we’re unaware of what future holds it’s actually blasphemous to claim to know the future, so saying so means “ If it’s the will of god it will happen if not it won’t “ and you’d also say it about future events.

Ma sha allah

It means “ this is what god intended “ and it’s a compliment. Saying so is like saying WOW! But it’s also kind of a prayer of protection? If I see someone with pretty hair I should say “ Ma sha allah your hair is very pretty “ the ma sha allah protects the person from the evil eye. By saying that I’m also saying I’m not jealous I’m genuinely enamored and I don’t wish any harm to go to it.

Astagfurullah

it means “ to god I repent “ or “ from god I seek forgiveness” it’s usually used when you make a mistake but people also use it when they see something bad or when they want to avoid saying something bad. Like once my card refused to work and I’d say that so I won’t say any curse words and to calm down my anger

wallah/wallahi

okay this one is important. This one shouldn’t be used so lightly. It means “ by god’s name “ and it’s basically swearing in Allah’s name. You are only supposed to say it if you genuinely mean what you’re saying. It’s such a heavy word that I only say it very rarely and if you say it and don’t follow up on what you said you have to fast for three days as repentance.

ya allah

ya is an addressing word? Like talking to someone or calling them? Like saying O’ ( someone ) so ya allah means O’ god

Al hamdullilah // hamdullilah

it means ‘ praise/thanks to god ‘ said when something good happens or when you feel relieved about something— for example, my shirt is stained badly and I’m worried it won’t clean well. I clean it and the stain is gone so I say “ al hamdullilah “ kind of like phew!. Sometimes people say it as an answer when they’re asked how they are it can either mean things are good or bad but we preserve .

One more note is that with the name of Allah you should also be careful it’s not supposed to be written on papers that’ll get stepped on or lightly used in art because it also has its own weight it’s regarded heavily. Like even in home decorations it should be elevated and not overshadowed. If I have to throw away a paper I have to sit down and color over the name of Allah or burn the papers so it won’t get thrown in trash.

another note is that those phrases aren’t Muslim exclusive. Some Arab non-Muslims use them as well. This is only my explanation from a Muslim perspective.

Another another note is this is what I can remember at the moment but if you have additions or enquiries let me know

Basics of HTML5: Let's build a webpage!

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

I'm a huge advocate for learning HTML5 as your first coding language (remember, it's not a programming language)! HTML5 is a great and easy coding language to get you into the feel of coding, especially for complete complete beginners!

I see a lot of people on Tumblr wanting to get into just creating their own websites but don't know how to start - coding is a new thing to them! So, I'm here to help with the language I know like it's the back of my hand!

And I am also an advocate of building projects in order to learn anything in coding/programming! Thus, what better way to learn the basics of HTML5 than to actually build a simple webpage? Let's get started~!

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

What is HTML5?

HTML, which stands for Hypertext Markup Language, is a special coding language that is used to create webpages. With HTML, you can tell a web browser, like Google Chrome or Safari, what to display on a webpage, such as text, images, and videos. And 'HTML5' is just the latest version of HTML!

HTML tags are special words or symbols that you use to create webpages. You use these tags to tell the web browser what content to display on a webpage, like headings, paragraphs, images, links, and more. Tags come in pairs (most of the time) so you'll have an opening tag and a closing tag. An example of the syntax:

The Simple Webpage

As I mentioned, we will be making a simple webpage for a person called David - see, he needs a portfolio webpage to start off with, and we're going to help me (as well as learning HTML5, of course).

Here is the code we will be using:

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!
Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

Pretty code, I know but also a bit confusing - let's get into understanding the code by grouping them into chunks! But just a heads up, the code includes these tags:

!DOCTYPE html (mmh it's more of a declaration really)

html, head, body

title

h1, h2, h3

p, a

li, ul, ol

These are some of the common tags used in all webpages on the internet! Okay, let's look at the code finally~!

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

The basic structure of every HTML page

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

Every HTML file looks like this - it has to have all of these tags!

The first line, !DOCTYPE html tag, tells the web browser which version of HTML is being used.

The code is contained within html tags, which enclose the entire webpage.

The head tags contain information about the webpage, such as the title and links to other resources.

The body tags contain the main and visible content of the webpage, such as text, images, and videos.

Together, this code provides the basic structure for an HTML webpage, with the head tags containing metadata and the body tags containing the actual content.

In the head tags

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

The title tags enclose the title of the webpage. In this example, the title is "My Programming Blog".

The title appears in the title bar of the web browser and is often used by search engines and social media sites to display the name of the webpage.

In the body tags - Headings and paragraphs

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

The h1 tags create a main and biggest heading, which in this case is "Welcome to My Programming Blog!" - you can only have one h1 tag on a webpage.

The h2 tags create subheadings, which in this case include "Latest Post", "About Me", and "My Projects" - you can have multiple h2 to h6 tags on a page.

The h3 tags create a sub-subheading under h2 tags, which in this case is "How I Improved My Coding Skills".

The p tags create paragraphs of text that provide more detail about the blog's content and purpose, including a summary of the latest blog post and information about the author and their projects.

In the body tags - lists and links

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

To start any list, you need to either start with ul tags or ol (ordered (numbered)) tags

The ul tags create an unordered list of items.

The li tags create list items within the unordered list.

Each list item includes a hyperlink created using the 'a' tags, with the text of the link being the name of a programming project.

The href attribute within each 'a' tag specifies the URL where the project code can be found on GitHub.

Attributes go inside the opening tags' arrows '<' and '>'.

The End Result

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

Boom - she's gorgeous, I know! A basic, simple webpage! We did it! You can see the page live + the code used here: [LINK]. Play around with the code, change things, experiment, break things, fix them - do what you need to learn further!

And that includes some online resources to help!

LINK 1 | LINK 2 | LINK 3

And some resources/posts I have shared about HTML

LINK 1 | LINK 2 | LINK 3

What next?

Learn CSS3! The page looks basic and looks like what pages were like when the internet was invented! You need colour, fancy fonts and layouts! CSS helps with that, as it is a styling sheet! Be sure to do some research but I also share resources on my blog under my #resources tag!

Basics Of HTML5: Let's Build A Webpage!

Thank you for reading and best of luck learning coding/programming! Remember, this isn't the only way to get into coding! People even recommend languages like Python to be beginners' first language, but I say that HTML5 should be the first coding language and then Python is your first programming language - don't know the difference? I made a post about it here!!

But definitely for people going into Web Development, HTML5 all the way! I don't think you can avoid learning HTML5 with Web Development (not 100% sure though...)!

Anyhoo, have a nice day/night! 👋🏾💻💕
