[QUOTE="BillM, post: 4060469, member: 45785"] No, I'm not Muslim, though I did investigate it, as well as Buddhism, Wicca, and a bunch of other faiths, including a number of versions of Christianity. I just lived/worked and explored several Muslim countries. I failed miserably at learning Turkish, but did pick up the usual social words & phrases. You hear that one all the time over there. They'll have your car fixed tomorrow, Insh'allah. The part you needed will be there next week, Insh'allah. A trainee pilot when the aircraft malfunctions, who is a Muslim, will likely take his hands off the controls, say Insh'allah, and wait for Allah to save him, or not. Oh, and when your car is not ready, or the part not arrived, once again they would say Insh'allah. Nothing they can do about it, it's God's Will that happened. That's the lack of urgency, compared to someone saying "Tomorrow!" [/QUOTE]
