The first verse, transliterated as "bismillāhir ra hmānir ra hīm", may be familiar to non-Arabic speakers and non-Muslims because of its ubiquity in Arabic and Muslim societies. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: whoever does not recite Surah Al-fatihah in his prayer his prayer is invalid. When recited during daily prayers, some schools of thought follow Surah Al-Fatihah by the word Amin. You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help “In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful:Īll Praise is due to Allah alone,the sustainer of all the worlds, The Arabic text with transliteration and translation in English is as follows. Although some Qur'an alone and liberal Muslims use translations as part of their daily prayers, they are used mainly for personal spiritual use by non-Arabic speakers. Translations into other languages are considered by many to be merely superficial "interpretations" of the meanings and not reliable versions of the Qur'an. Muslims believe that the Qur'an is a revelation from God in the Arabic language.
