بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ 1

[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds –
ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ 3
The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful,
مَـٰلِكِ يَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ 4
Sovereign of the Day of Recompense.
إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ 5
It is You we worship and You we ask for help.
ٱهْدِنَا ٱلصِّرَٰطَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ 6

صِرَٰطَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ ٱلْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا ٱلضَّآلِّينَ 7
