Al-Fâtihah [The Opening]
1. In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
2. Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the world.
3. Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
4. Master of the Day of Judgment.
5. Thee (alone) we worship, and Thee (alone) we ask for help.
6. Guide us the straight path,
7. The path of those Thou hast favoured; Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray.
Translation by M M Pickthall
When recited during daily prayers, some schools of thought follow Al-Fatihah by the word Amin.
Imam Muslim reported that the prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) declare that
"ALLAH the Exalted had said:
I have divided the prayer into two halves between My servant, and My servant and Me will receive what he asks.
When the servant says: "Praise is to Allah, the Lord of the universe", Allah the Most High says: "My servant has praised Me."
And when he (the servant) says:" The Most Compassionate, the Merciful", Allah the Most High says: "My servant has lauded Me."
And when he (the servant) says:" Master of the Day of Judgment," He remarks: "My servant has glorified Me," and sometimes He would say: "My servant entrusted (his affairs) to Me."
And when he (the worshipper) says: "(You) we do worship and of (You) we do ask help," He (Allah) says: "This is between My servant, and My servant and Me will receive what he asks for."
Then, when he (the worshipper) says: Guide us to the straight path, the path of those to whom you have bestowed your Gracious, not (the way) of those who earned Your anger, nor of those who went astray. " He (Allah) says: "This is for My servant, and My servant will receive what he asked for."
