God's greatness and guidance
Al-Fatiha (The Opening)
بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
{١}
In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.
ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
{٢}
All praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds,
ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful,
مَٰلِكِ يَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ
{٤}
Master of the Day of Judgment.
إِيَّاكَ نَعۡبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسۡتَعِينُ
{٥}
You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help.
ٱهۡدِنَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلۡمُسۡتَقِيمَ
{٦}
Guide us to the straight path,
صِرَٰطَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنۡعَمۡتَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ غَيۡرِ ٱلۡمَغۡضُوبِ عَلَيۡهِمۡ وَلَا ٱلضَّآلِّينَ
{٧}
the path of those whom You have blessed; not of those who incurred Your Wrath, or of those who went astray.
