The answer

The Sharia has prohibited addressing people with "I worship you" (عبَدتُك) or "I am your slave" (أنا عبدُك). In the Hadith: "None of you should say: 'My slave (عبدي)' or 'My female slave (أمتي)'. All of you are slaves of Allah, and all your women are female slaves of Allah. Rather, let him say: 'My boy (غلامي),' 'My girl (جاريتي),' 'My young man (فتاي),' and 'My young woman (فتاتي).'" As for the phrase "My luck is bad; the Provider is in the heavens, and the envious one is on earth," it is not permissible if it implies that the envious person can prevent the destined provision.
