  18. The Greatest Surah in the Qur’an The Prophet (sallAllahu alayhi wasallam) said, “I will teach you a Surah which is the greatest Surah in the Qur'an…” He said, “Al-Hamdu-Lillah Rabbi-l-Alamin which is Al-Sab'a Al-Mathani (seven repeatedly recited Verses) and the Grand Qur'an which has been given to me.”   [Sahih Bukhari, Book #60, Hadith #1]

  19. Revealed by a Special Angel Narrated IbnAbbaas (radiyAllahu anhu): “While the Messenger of Allah (sallAllahu alayhiwasallam) was sitting with Jibreel(alayhi assalam), he heard a creaking sound above him. Jibreellooked up and said, “This is the sound of a gate that has been opened in heaven today and has never been previously opened.” Then an Angel descended through it and came to the Prophet (sallAllahu alayhiwasallam) and said, • “Rejoice in the good news of two lights that have been given to you such as no prophet before you has been given. • [They are] Surah al-Fatihahand the concluding [two] Ayat of Surah al-Baqarah. You will never recite a word from them without being given the blessings they contain." [An-Nisaee and al-Haakim]

  20. Unique Virtues Opening Surah in the Qur’an • Beginning of book • Commanded to recite 17 times a day Every Surah in Qur’an is related to Surah al-Fatihah • This Surah explains the whole Qur’an • Everything in our life is related to this Surah • We live with this Surah in our daily life • Understand it, live with it, and feel it

  21. Key to every Surah, Key to the whole Qur’an With its marvelously brief and comprehensive words, it balances praise and petition perfectly, and it establishes four main themes or purposes of the Qur’ānic guidance. • (1) Existence and Unity of God, • (2) Prophethood, • (3) the Resurrection and afterlife, and • (4) Worship and justice.

  22. Hadith Qudsi Allah SWT says, “I have divided the prayer (Al-Fatihah) between Myself and my slave equally and My slave shall be granted what he asked for.” • [Sahih Muslim]

  23. Therefore when the slave says, ‘All praises and thanks are due to Allah, the Lord of the universe’, Allah says, ‘My slave has praised Me.’ When he says, ‘the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful,’ Allah says, ‘My slave has glorified Me.’ When he says, ‘Master of the Day of Judgment,’ Allah says, ‘My slave has related all matters to Me.’ When he says, ‘You alone we worship and You alone we seek for help,’ Allah says, ‘This is between Me and My slave and My slave shall have what he requested.’ When he says, ‘Guide us to the straight path, the path of those whom You have favored, not of those who earned Your anger, nor of those who have gone astray’ Allah says, ‘This is for My slave and My slave shall have what he asked for.’

  26. 11 points to remember from Surah al-Fatihah

  27. 1. Reminder of Allah’s Favors & Bounties الْحَمْدُ للّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ Al Hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Aalameen All praise and gratitude are for God, the Lord of the worlds. It should be noted that all praise and thanks are due to God alone, and are His alone. Wherever beauty, excellence and perfection occur, the ultimate source is God. No created beings, whether angels or humans, heavenly or earthly objects, have anything other than a dependent excellence, beauty or perfection.

  28. الْحَمْدُ للّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ Al Hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Aalameen All praise and gratitude are for God, the Lord of the worlds. “Worlds” translates the Arabic ‘ālamīn (singular, ‘ālam). The word comes from ‘alam, ‘alāmah, meaning something by which another thing is known. Thus, in this perspective, every individual thing or set of things, from the tiniest sub-atomic particles to the largest nebulae and galaxies, is a “world” and indicates God. The plural form (‘ālamīn) is particularly used for conscious beings, giving the sense that everything that is created is as if conscious, and signifying that its pointing to God’s Existence, Unity and Lordship is extremely clear for conscious beings. 30

  29. 2. Reminder of the Names and Attributes of Allah الرَّحْمـانِ Ar-Rahman The All-Merciful الرَّحِيمِ Ar-Rahim the All-Compassionate مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ Maaliki yawm mid-deen The Master of the Day of Judgment. 31

  30. 3. Reminder of the main connection between us and Allah (SWT) الرَّحْمـانِ الرَّحِيمِAr-RahmanAr-RahimMost Gracious Most Merciful Mercy

  31. Choose your way… Illusion Reality There is no mercy, no purpose in life. God’s mercy encompasses everything.

  32. مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ Maaliki yawm mid-deen The Master of the Day of Judgment. Mālik => Master means both owner and sovereign Although God allows the existence of sovereigns in this world because He has endowed humankind with free will, He will be the sole, absolute Sovereign on the Day of Judgment. “Whose is the absolute Sovereignty on that Day? It is God’s, the One, the All-Overwhelming (with absolute sway over all that exist).” (40: 16).)

  33. 4. Reminder that sincerity is only to Allah إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ Iyyakana’buduwaiyyakana’stayeen You alone we worship & You alone we seek for help

  34. As for the sincere servant of God, he is a worshipping servant who does not degrade himself to bow in worship, even before the greatest of the creatures.

  35. Servanthood in Islam is the only means to true human freedom and dignity. No one is greater than any other in being a servant and, therefore, none is worthy of worship or adoration. Every created being, whether a Prophet or a common human, is equally removed from being an object of worship. The Prescribed Prayer (the Salāh) and the Pilgrimage (the Hajj) are public occasions that demonstrate this most clearly.

  36. 5. Reminder of the unity of the Ummah إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُIyyaka na budu wa iyyaka na’stayeenYou alone we worship andYou alone we seek for help

  37. Iyyaka na budu wa iyyaka na’stayeenThe collective aspect refers to • (i) the individual person with all the systems and cells of his/her body, • (ii) the group(s) of believers who have come together at any place or time to worship God, and • (iii) to the whole body of believers throughout the world who have turned to the Ka‘bah to worship.

  38. 6. Reminder to keep good company اهدِنَــــا الصِّرَاطَ المُستَقِيمَ Ihdinasiratalmustaqim Guide us on the straight path Sirāt is used in the Qur’ān in the singular; the word has no plural. This tells us that it is the only road leading to God, although there are many roads (sabīl) leading to the Path. It is qualified with the adjective straight, meaning that the Straight Path is the way of the Qur’ān, with no crookedness at all (18: 1)

  39. 7. Warning against bad company اهدِنَــــا الصِّرَاطَ المُستَقِيمَ Ihdinasiratalmustaqim Guide us on the straight path It is the middle way having nothing to do with any extremes. It is equally far from communism and capitalism in economy, from absolutism and anarchism in politics, from realism and idealism in philosophy, from materialism and spiritualism in belief, from being exclusively this-worldly or exclusively other-worldly in world-view. It is the middle way considering human psychology and the realities of life and creation.

  40. 8. Istiqama - Reminder to stay on the straight path اهدِنَــــا الصِّرَاطَ المُستَقِيمَIhdinasiratalmustaqimGuide us on the straight path Path => Sirāt. It is a way having ups and downs, one wide in some of its parts and narrow in others, and difficult to walk on. It is described in a Prophetic Tradition as a path or bridge with ups and downs, one having walls on its sides, and doors and windows opening on the outside. The walls are the rules of the Islamic Sharī‘ah, which protect it from external attacks and save those following it from veering off. The doors and windows are the openings to things forbidden. Those following the Path should not follow these openings lest they go astray.

  41. 9. Reminder of the Hereafter: As-Sirat صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنعَمتَ عَلَيهِمْSiratallatheena an ‘amtaalayhimThe path of those who earned your favor Even if one can, by studying creation and reflecting on it, work out that there must be One Who has created it, none can discover what the Straight Path is through reasoning alone.

  42. The greatest favor or blessing of God for humanity is the Religion. • People attain happiness in both worlds through it, and realize the aim of their creation. In order to be able to find and follow the true Religion, God points us towards some persons He has chosen among people. • He describes them as those whom He has favored. He presents the Straight Path as their way, and • He publicizes their identity in another verse (4: 69):Whoever obeys God and the Messenger (as they must be obeyed), then those are (and in the Hereafter will be, in Paradise) in the company of those whom God has favored (with the perfect guidance) – the Prophets, and the truthful ones (loyal and truthful in whatever they do and say), and the witnesses (those who see the hidden Divine truths and testify thereto with their lives), and the righteous ones (in all their deeds and sayings and dedicated to setting everything right). How excellent they are for companions! • One who sincerely searches for such people finds them, because they shine in the spiritual and intellectual “heaven” of humankind.

  43. 10. Reminder of the importance of du’aa إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help. اهدِنَــــا الصِّرَاطَ المُستَقِيمَ Guide us to the straight path. صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنعَمتَ عَلَيهِمْ غَيرِ المَغضُوبِ عَلَيهِمْ وَلاَ الضَّالِّينَ The path of those on whom You have bestowed your grace, not the path of those who earned your anger, nor of those that went astray.

  44. The Qur’ān forbids us to follow the ways of two groups: • those who have incurred God’s wrath (punishment and condemnation), and • those who are astray

  45. God’s wrath does not mean that God becomes angry in some way analogous to us. Rather, His wrath means punishment and condemnation. • We read in the Qur’ān that those • who kill a believer intentionally (4: 93), • who cherish evil thoughts about God (48: 6), • who flee the battlefield (8: 16), • who have disbelieved after their belief (16: 106), and • who argue concerning God after He has been acknowledged (42: 16) • who disbelieved in God and slew His Prophets (2: 61); • who refused to believe in Prophet Muhammad because of envy and racist tendencies, even though they knew and recognized that he was a Prophet (2: 90); • who took a calf for worship after they believed in God (7: 152, 20: 86); and • who showed disrespect to the Sabbath, also incurred God’s wrath (punishment and condemnation). • have incurred God’s punishment and condemnation.

  46. The verbal noun meaning “astray” (dalāl) can refer to a broad range of straying from the path – from the slightest lapse of a believer to complete deviation from the Straight Path. • As a term, • it denotes returning to unbelief after belief and exchanging unbelief for belief (2: 108); • associating partners with God either in His Essence or His Attributes or acts (4: 116); and • rejecting faith in all or any of the pillars of faith, namely believing in the Existence and Unity of God (including Destiny), in angels, in all the Divine Scriptures and Prophets, without making any distinction among them with respect to believing in them, and in the Resurrection and afterlife.

  47. 11. Reminder on how to address Allah 1) In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. 2) All the praises and thanks are for Allah the Lord of the Universe. 3) The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful. 4) Master of the Day of Recompense. Praise 5) You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help. 6) Guide us to the straight path. 7) The path of those on whom You have bestowed your grace, not the path of those who earned your anger, nor of those that went astray. Du’aa
