Allah Hafiz Meaning
“Hafiz” comes from the Arabic word “Hafiiz” which means “Protector” (The one who Protects). Combing Hafiz with Allah means, “May Allah be your Protector” or “May God be your Guardian”. And if Allah is your Guardian, there shall be nothing that could harm you in any way or manner.
When to say it
The most common usage of this phrase is just as English speakers would say goodbye. Normally said at the end of a conversation or departing from each other. The difference between saying Allah Hafiiz and Fi Amanillah is the meaning as Fi Amanillah means “(be) with the safety of Allah”.

or you can reply with the same phrase “Allah Hafiiz“
