The Key (Al-Faatehah)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 1
Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds; 2 Most Gracious, Most Merciful; 3 The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) 4 Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help. 5 Guide us to the Straight Way 6 The path of those whom You have favoured – Not the path of those who earned Your anger – nor of those who are astray. 7
