A SHORT AND BEAUTIFUL EXPLANATION OF SURAH FATIHAH Abu Hurairah radhiyallahu anhu reported: I heard Rasoolullahi sallalahu alaihi wasallam narrating a Hadith Qudsi in which Allah Subhanahu wa Taaala has said, I have divided Surah Fatihah into two halves between Me and My slave, and my slave will receive what he asks. So, when His slave says Alhamdulillahi Rabbil Aalameen (Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the universe), Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala says My slave has praised Me!. And when His slave says Arrahmanirraheem (The Compassionate, the Merciful), Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala says My slave has extolled Me! And when His slave says Maliki Yaumiddeen (Master of the Day of Judgement), Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala says My slave has glorified Me! (or) entrusted Me! And when His slave says Iyyaka Nabudu wa iyyaka nastaeen (You alone do we worship and You alone do we seek for help), Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala says This is between Me and My slave, so whatever he asks, it will be granted. And when His slave says Ihdinas Siratal mustaqeem siraatal ladhina anamta alaihim ghairil maghdhubi alaihim wa laddaallin (Guide us to the straight path, the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favours and not of those who have incurred Your wrath and nor of those who have gone astray), Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala says, This (part of the Surah is exclusively) for My slave and my slave shall receive whatever he has asked for.
