Answer 8

That word is actually a phrase that's missing a part. "Jazak Allahu Khairan" is the full phrase and translates to: My Allah (God) reward you with/in goodness. We are recommended to say especially that last word when using this phrase because saying "Jazak Allah" is incomplete and means: May Allah (God) reward you with. You need to say that last part but most people don't think about it or are lazy to say it. The correct phrase it: Jazak Allahu Khairan - May Allah (God) reward you in goodness. By the way:

To male: Jazak Allahu Khairan

To Female: Jazaki Ellahu Khairan

To group of people: Jazakum Allahu Khairan

This is commonly used in the sense of saying "thank you" among Muslims. This phrase is at times used by non-Muslim Arabs as well, though rarely.

Answer 10

Answer 11

It means...Thanks be to Allah

People use it to say thank you to each other

Answer 12

It's the muslim way of saying thank you.

"May Allah reward you"

To muslims the belief is that any rewards (and punishments)  you receive in this world ceases when you die.

This is a way to thank someone and also ensure that their reward comes from Alllah swa rather than from you because his reward is eternal while yours ends after you utter the words.

Answer 13

something like thank you,
