Chapter 1, 7 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists).
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
The Beneficent, the Merciful.
The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
Master of the Day of Judgment.
The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection)
مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ
Thee do we serve and Thee do we beseech for help.
You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything).
إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ
Keep us on the right path.
Guide us to the Straight Way.
اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
The path of those upon whom Thou hast bestowed favors. Not (the path) of those upon whom Thy wrath is brought down, 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). ,
صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ
