Have you ever heard the expression Inch'Allah, used by Muslims? It's the same: if God agrees.
Often it's used without religious undertones, just to mean "I hope so", or "Let's hope so".
It refers to an uncertain event, for instance,
- Let's meet again next year.
- God willing.
The second person means "Yes, I hope so too, let's see what life reserves us between now and then."
