The Key (Al-Faatehah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful 1
All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). 2 the Beneficent, the Merciful 3 The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) 4 You alone we worship, and to You alone turn for help. 5 Guide us to the Straight Way 6 The path of those whom Thou hast favoured; Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray. 7
