The Opening
All praise be to Allah alone, the Sustainer of all the worlds,[1:1]
All praise be to Allah alone, the Sustainer of all the worlds,

[1:2]
Most Compassionate, Ever-Merciful,

[1:3]
Master of the Day of Judgment.

[1:4]
(O Allah!) You alone do we worship and to You alone do we look for help.

[1:5]
Show us the straight path,

[1:6]
The path of those upon whom You have bestowed Your favours,

[1:7]
Not of those who have been afflicted with wrath, nor of those who have gone astray.
