Google gives me: „ We belong to God and to Him we shall return“ when selecting Arabic. I‘m just learning Arabic but I‘m wondering why op wrote it including the pronunciation marks which is very uncommon in daily use. I can imagine that it is a quote from the Quran

Yes, 2:156 https://quran.com/2/156 it's said by muslims when something bad happens, especially when hearing news that someone has passed away
