Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un (Arabic: إِنَّا ِلِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ, ʾinnā li-llāhi wa-ʾinnā ʾilayhi rājiʿūna), also known as Istirja (Arabic: إِسْتِرْجَاع, ʾIstirjāʿ), is an Arabic phrase, mentioned in the second surah of the Quran,[1] and meaning "Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed, to Him we return." The phrase is recited by Muslims, during calamities such as those that befalls him in his own self, his family or his money. From amongst these calamities is death and as such this phrase may be said when hearing that someone has passed away. Through calamity the muslims seek reward, and there is no way to attain it but through patience. [2] [3][4]
A similar phrase is used in the Tanakh (Genesis 3:19): עָפָ֣ר אַ֔תָּה וְאֶל־עָפָ֖ר תָּשֽׁוּב׃, Dust you are, and to dust you will return.[5]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
