Allah knows best, in Arabic الله اعلم (''Allahu 'alam'', literally "Allah knew"), is an Islamic phrase that finds frequent usage in Islamic literature such as the [[tafsir]]. In Arabic as a whole it is used in instances where the speaker does not know the answer to a particular question. In Islamic historical and theological writing it is often used as a reply to questions about the history of the Islamic narrative that are difficult to answer and questions that cast a doubt on the truthfulness or authenticity of Islam.
