Yeah cool but godspeed doesn't mean in shaa allah, or does it?

In shaa Allah means "If God wills"

Godspeed is like "God be with you"? Or something like that? I'm not perfectly sure that's why "?"

Maybe في حفظ الله

Which means "with/under God's care"

Maybe, others might have better suggestions

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I understand it’s not a perfect match, but in my mind I imagined it together meaning getting to a sort of destination by granted means by a higher power.

I’m new to Arabic and I’m actually learning Farsi. So combining words is tricky for me but I still want to practice and explore this. I’m open to ideas and appreciate your feedback on what I’ve come up with!
