Im Namen Allahs, des Allerbarmers, des Barmherzigen.
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
(Alles) Lob gehört Allah, dem Herrn der Welten,
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,
Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds;
dem Allerbarmer, dem Barmherzigen,
The Beneficent, the Merciful.
Most Gracious, Most Merciful;
dem Herrscher am Tag des Gerichts.
Master of the Day of Judgment,
Master of the Day of Judgment.
Dir allein dienen wir, und zu Dir allein flehen wir um Hilfe.
Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help.
Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek.
Leite uns den geraden Weg,
Show us the straight path,
Show us the straight way,
den Weg derjenigen, denen Du Gunst erwiesen hast, nicht derjenigen, die (Deinen) Zorn erregt haben, und nicht der Irregehenden!
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 Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose (portion) is not wrath, and who go not astray.
