Khuda Hafiz (Persian: خداحافظ, romanized: Khodâ Hâfez), Pashto: خداۍ حافظ (khuday hafiz), Bengali: খোদা হাফেজ (Khoda Hafej), Urdu: خُدا حافِظ, Hindi: ख़ुदा हाफ़िज़, (Xudā Hāfiz), Kurdish: خودا حافیز, (kẖwạ ḥạfy̰z), Azerbaijani: Xüdafiz), is a common parting phrase originating in the Persian language. It is most commonly used in Iran, Afghanistan, Tajikistan and in South Asia,[1] where it is also sometimes used by non-Muslims including some Christians and Parsis.[2][3] Additionally it is also used by some Azeris, Kurds, and Jews of recent Iranian heritage.[4]
In Persian it is colloquially often shortened to Khodafez.
