In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
Im Namen Allahs, des Allerbarmers, des Barmherzigen.
Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds;
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,
(Alles) Lob gehört Allah, dem Herrn der Welten,
Most Gracious, Most Merciful;
The Beneficent, the Merciful.
dem Allerbarmer, dem Barmherzigen,
Master of the Day of Judgment.
Master of the Day of Judgment,
dem Herrscher am Tag des Gerichts.
Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek.
Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help.
Dir allein dienen wir, und zu Dir allein flehen wir um Hilfe.
Show us the straight way,
Show us the straight path,
Leite uns den geraden Weg,
The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose (portion) is not wrath, and who go not astray.
The path of those whom Thou hast favoured; Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray.
den Weg derjenigen, denen Du Gunst erwiesen hast, nicht derjenigen, die (Deinen) Zorn erregt haben, und nicht der Irregehenden!
