About Surah Al-Fatihah

Al-Fatihah, “The Opening”, is the first surah of the Quran and the one Muslims recite most: it is read in every unit (rak'ah) of every prayer. In seven short verses it praises Allah as Lord of all worlds, the Most Merciful and Master of the Day of Judgement, then asks Him for guidance to the straight path.

The Prophet ﷺ called it Umm al-Kitab (the Mother of the Book) and “the seven oft-repeated verses”, and it is often recited for healing (ruqyah).
