What does Alhamdulillah mean?
In one sentence
Alhamdulillah means 'all praise is due to God' and is said in thanks for any blessing.
Alhamdulillah means “all praise and thanks belong to God”. It is the opening phrase of the Quran after the basmala and the most common expression of gratitude a Muslim uses, said after eating, after sneezing, on hearing good news, and even on hearing bad news, since a believer thanks God in every state. The phrase is not limited to happy moments; saying it in hardship is considered a sign of trust. It is often shortened in speech to “hamdulillah”. The source glossary gives the full grammatical meaning and the hadith that describe its reward.
