All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists).

You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything).
Show us the straight path,
Guide us to the Straight Way.
The path of those whom Thou hast favoured; Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray.
The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace , not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (i.e. those who knew the Truth, but did not follow it) nor of those who went astray (i.e. those who did not follow the Truth out of ignorance and error). ,
