Genesis 1:2 - Meditate the Scripture Daily bit by bit
Surah Al-Fatiha
1. The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said “ When Allah wishes good for a person He bestows upon him the understanding of His Deen”
2. If you want to know how much good Allah (SWT) has done to you and If you want to know how much good Allah (SWT) is granting you look how much Allah (SWT) gives you of the ability to learn and seek knowledge Attending religious gatherings and learning more about Islam is a sign of love of Allah (SWT) to His servants. Allah gives good to those whom he loves and you are from amongst those whom Allah loves because you all are in a gathering that you are seeking knowledge.
9. SurahFatihah is called by many names 1. Umm al Kitab 2. Al Hamd 3. As Sab’al – Mathani 4. Ash-Shifa 5. Al-Asas
10. “We have given thee seven of the Oft-repeated (verses) and the great Qur’an” [SurahHijr 15:87]
11. The benefits of Reciting SurahFatiha The Prophet of Allah said that Allah, the most high declared, I have divided prayer between Myself and My servant into two halves, and My servant shall have what he has asked for.
12. When the servant says: All praise belongs to Allaah the Rabb of all the Worlds.Allaah (SWT) says: My servant has praised Me. When the servant says:All praise belongs to Allaah the Rabb of all the Worlds.Allaah(SWT) says: My servant has praised Me. And when he says: The Most Gracious the Most MercifulAllaah(SWT) says: My servant has extolled Me
13. When he says: Master of the Day of JudgmentAllaah(SWT) says: My servant has glorified Me when he says:You alone do we worship and from You alone do we seek helpHe says: This is between Me and My servant, and My servant shall have what he has asked for. And when he says:Guide us to the Straight Path, the Path of those whom you have favoured, not of those upon whom is Your anger, nor of those who are astrayHe says: This is for My servant, and My servant shall have what he has asked for." [Reported by Muslim, Maalik, at-Tirmidhee, Abu Daawood, an-Nasaaee and IbnMaajah]
14. Placed at the beginning of the Qur’an this Surah is actually a prayer. Allah asks man to read the Quran with the aim of finding out ‘the straight path’ and true guidance. This Surah is thus man’s prayer and the rest of the Quran is Allah’s response showing man the straight path which will bring his success in both this life and the next life.
