غَيۡرِ (gairi) and وَلَا (wala) are both mean "not"?
Do ghayr and wa-la both mean 'not'?
In Surah Al-Fatiha, the verse says: Ghayri al-maghdubi 'alayhim wa-la al-dallin.
If I am correct that both 'ghayr' and 'wa-la' mean 'not,' why are two different words used if both mean same?
Thanks in advance! Pls if anybody already explained clearly, please do not waste your time. explaining it again.

Someguy here just said, look at your pict. You are a bad moeslim. Did you judge everyone just by a pict? Thats not polite ig.
Salam Aleykum Wa Arahmatulahi Wa Barakatuh. Not long ago i was warning the ummah for possible jews being infiltrated in the ummah. The reason i was thinking that is because i thought good about all people from Arabia or the North-African muslims. But the people who betrayed me the most were people from those countries. So i couldn't believe that i was betrayed by those people and believed they were jews pretending to be muslim. I couldn't believe that an Arab actually was jealous of me and would betray me. Atleast, my wali claimed to be an Arab. He looked down on other races appearentely because he tried to connect me with people from the country i belong to according to my family. But i don't believe in inferior races or languages so i didn't accept it. It's one ummah. Not an ummah devided amongst different sects or races! I see muslimjinn, muslimhumans, and even animals who are all muslim as one ummah. Only in normal cases we cannot communicate with animals so it's logical that animals and humans don't mingle in mosques. But not that we should disrespect them because they don't belong to the humankind. Anyway, that i share this isn't a reason to lay down your guard for possible infiltrants because every religion has been infiltrated by evil people except the one and only true religion i believe. So use your own intellect and never assume that you must be on the right path without proper investigation. Ask Allah. He is the owner of the Quran's true interpretation. May Allah guide every sincere believer to the straigth path and may He prevent them from becoming apostates/disbelievers.
Salam Aleykum Wa Arahmatulahi Wa Barakatuh. I recently found out the true reason behind certain behaviour of the disbelievers. Disbelievers mock Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala by doing dirty things. Some muslims might do certain things without knowledge of the reason disbelievers are doing it. For example by doing sexual acts that are dirty. My advice is to stop imitating behaviour of the disbelievers because many things they do is out of disrespect to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala intending to mock Him or/and make Him angry. This has been inspired to me. May Allah lead every sincere believer to truth and may He prevent them to become apostates/disbelievers.
LEVELS IN MA’RIFATULLAH (Gnosis of God)
There are four people.
A person wants a mango. He goes to the market and buys one. This is called Shari'ah.
Another person plants a mango tree and waits for it to bear fruit, then enjoys the fruit. Because he is certain that the tree will eventually produce fruit, this is called Haqiqah (Ultimate Reality).
Another person simply prays, and suddenly a tree grows before him and bears fruit. This is called Tasawwuf (Sufism).
But the last person says Bismillah (“In the name of God”), and a mango appears in his hand instantly, without waiting even a second. This is called Ma’rifah (Gnosis of God).
This is one way of explaining why prophets, righteous people, scholars, sheikhs, and saints are sometimes said to possess extraordinary gifts that some people find difficult to believe.
Each spiritual level comes with trials that not everyone is able to endure, and hardship, criticism, and poverty are often inseparable companions on the path.
Every person has their own measure and station. Once again, this is a matter of spiritual levels.

Ya ALLAH, bless my coming days,
With guidance in Your chosen ways.
And if a spouse is meant for me,
Make them a source of piety.
A gentle heart, sincere and true,
Who always turns their soul to You.
