THE FĀTIHAH.

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful.

Praise be to God, the Lord of the Worlds!

The Compassionate, the Merciful!

King of the day of judgment!

Thee we worship, and Thee we ask for help.

Guide us in the straight way,

The way of those to whom Thou art gracious;

Not of those upon whom is Thy wrath nor of the erring.
