SURAH AL FATIHA | By Sheikh Mishary Rashid Al Afasy

Surah al-Fatiha (سُّورَةُ الفَاتِحَة‎‎) is the first chapter of the Quran and is recited in each prayer as the Prophet, may the mercy and blessings of Allah be upon him, declared, “There is no salah (valid) without the opening chapter of the Book.”[1] On accepting Islam, a person should first memorize Surah al-Fatiha to be able to perform the prescribed prayers. Its meaning should be learnt and contemplated every time we offer salah.
Its seven verses (Ayah) are a prayer for the guidance, lordship, and mercy of Allah. The word “Fatiha” comes from the verb “Fataha”, which means in this text “to open”.
