BismAllah ar Rahman ar Raheem is the correct way to say it.
In the name of Allah(God) the Most Gracious the Most Merciful.
The most Gracious and the Most Merciful are also names of God. This is said when starting things. Like in the name of God I do this. In Islam we do everything for God.
When you call upon God you may say things like Ya Allah(oh God) Ya Rabb(Oh Lord). When you speak to Him you can call him by any of his names, you can call upon Him in any language.

It means "in the name of God".the complete form is "besmellaherrahmanerrahim" which means "in the name of merciful and kind God".of course it is an Arabic phrase.In Iran in formal situations we say "be name Kodavande bakhshande va mehrban"."in the name of God" means you start your work/job/etc for God/to obey him/or you do it as God has ordered and also it shows that you know there is a God and sees you and knows what you do whereever you are.

Do u think of the allah of the quran will take u out of the hell to which u flow first? No he won't. he's not in a position even tho' u say he's maximum merciful. do no longer assume mercy from the devil. Jesus introduced grace and actuality to the international. Md returned introduced regulation which will take u to hell.

You say this before you start whatever you were going to start. So you'd say..."In the Name of...". This to say that in the name of God we start this work.

We usually say Bismillah (in the name of Allah) before doing any task.

They say that as there prophet said that
so they will not change it
they think that the name of their God "Allah" would drive devils away from them
It's may be similar to Christian "In the name of Father, Son and the holy spirit" and may be taken from them with some changes
