The first chapter (Surah) of the Quran

The Opening	Al-Fatiha	اَلْفَاتِحَة
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.	Bismillaah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem	بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds,	Al hamdu lillaahi rabbil ‘alameen	الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.	Ar-Rahman ar-Raheem	الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
Master of the Day of Judgment,	Maaliki yaumid Deen	مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ
You we worship, and You we ask for help.	Iyyaaka na’abudu wa iyyaaka nasta’een	إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ
Guide us to the straight path.	Ihdinas siraatal mustaqeem	اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
The path of those upon whom You have bestowed Your Grace. Neither those who earned Your anger, nor of those who went astray.	Siraatal ladheena an‘amta ’alaihim Ghairil maghduubi ’alaihim wala-ddaaleen	صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ
