The Key (Al-Faatehah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful 1
Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds; 2 The Compassionate, the Merciful. 3 The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) 4 Thee do we serve and Thee do we beseech 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
