So inshallah we will begin with Surah, two Fatiha. And before we begin pseudo Fatiha, what we're going to do is first in sha Allah, I'm going to talk about what Surah Fatiha is, its virtues, its different names. And also I'm going to tell you about the overall message and theme of Surah Fatiha. And then the next thing we're going to do is we're going to look at the translation and the word analysis, where we're going to look at every word linguistically. So I'm going to tell you the meaning. And also, its relation with the word before it and after it. And then in sha Allah, we're going to study deceit. So three things we're going to do the first is introduction to the surah. The
second is translation and word analysis, and the third is deceit in sha Allah. So let's begin with the introduction to the surah. When we look at any Surah of the Quran, the first thing we do is what is its name? What is the name of the surah and then we look at the virtues of the Surah In light of Hadith in light of the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, we also have to be aware of when the surah was revealed, and also the number of its verses. So when it comes to the names of Surah Al Fatiha Of course we know that saluted Fatiha is called Al Fatiha Why is it called Al Fatiha al Fatiha means the opening right it means the opening so, it is called the opening because the
Quran opens with it. So, you can see on the screen some names of Surah Fatiha and inshallah I'm going to go over all of them one by one. The first name that you can see starting from the right side is the name of Salah. Surah Fatiha is called a Salah. And a solo means the prayer. Why is it called the prayer because in a hadith we learned that Allah subhanaw taala says a psalm to salata. benei will be now over D that I have divided the salah between me and between my slave into this fine into two portions while you're on the master URL and my slave shall have what he asks for. And then in the rest of the Hadith we learn about how when the servant says Alhamdulillah hillbilly
Alameen Allah subhanaw taala answers that my slave has praised me. So Salah means prayer and inscrutable fatty *. What are we essentially doing? We are asking Allah subhanaw taala for something because see We begin in Surah Fatiha by praising and glorifying Allah. Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen all praises for Allah Lord of the Worlds who is a recommander Rahim who is Maliki OMA deen and therefore your Allah it is only you that we worship only you that we ask for help from and then we ask Allah subhana wa Tada for something which is Idina Serato Mr. Kane, Oh Allah, guide us to the straight path. So sudo Fatiha is actually a DUA, it is a supplication. It is prayer. And
remember that if a person does not recite Surah Fatiha in their salah, their Salah is not valid. So it is as important as Salah itself. So the first name is a sauna. The second name of Surah Fatiha is fatty how to look it up or the short form Fatty Fatty how to Kitab means opening of the book. Fatiha itself means the opening. In a hadith in Bukhari, we learned the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Lao salata, Lima lamb Yatra, be Fatiha till Kitab that there is no prayer of the person who does not recite the Fatiha toolkit up meaning the opening of the Kitab now Fatiha as I mentioned to you means opening it is to remove an obstruction. It's also used for victory. So it is the opening
of the Quran. It is as though it is an introduction to the book of Allah Surah Fatiha gives you insight into what is coming in the rest of the Quran. So it is the opening of the book, the beginning of the book. Thirdly Surah Fatiha is also called a several Metheny a submarine Muthoni means the seven off to repeated verses Sobor means seven Muthoni means oft repeated or frequently recited in the Quran in surah 287 Allah subhanaw taala says well occurred at a NACA Sabha Amina al Madani. Well Quran Allah alim, and certainly we have given you the seven oft repeated verses and we have given you the Great Quran. So in the Quran Surah Al Fatiha is praised. The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam said, Omar Qurani he has several
methoni He was talking about total Fatiha and he said it is a sub aromatherapy. It is the seventh after repeated verses and this hadith isn't Buhari and if you think about it Surah Al Fatiha is really a sutra that you recite so much. It says no, you're always reciting it because you have to recite it in Salah in every single record. Whether you are performing your font prayer, or your Nafion prayer or Eid prayer Witr Prayer, the hodzic prayer fudgier LaHood ASA, any Salah that you perform what do you have to recite Surah Al Fatiha so this way it is really the most recited portion of the Quran. Fourthly, Surah Fatiha is also called Omar Al Quran. All Quran means literally the
mother of the book. And an Arabic when something is called the mother of something. It doesn't literally mean it's the mother of that thing in the biological sense. No a mother in the sense that it is the origin, it is the basis is the foundation. So Surah Fatiha is OMO Quran because it is the origin meaning the beginning of the Quran and some say it is called OMO Quran because it comprises all of the meanings of the Quran, meaning Surah Fatiha conveys to us all of the messages of the Quran. You want to know what the Quran says. Then you look at surat al Fatiha
and Surah fattier also contains within it the primary Names of Allah, Allah and a Rahman so it is Amal Quran. Then we see the typical Fatiha is also called Al Quran Allah Aleem
Al Quran Allah Aleem The Great Quran in Hadith and Muslim Ahmed we learned the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said here omole Quran where he has several Muthoni where he Al Quran Allah Aleem Surah Fatiha is omole Quran. It is a sub Rima Thani and it is an annual or leave it is the Great Quran because it comprises all of the meanings of the Quran. And then we see that certain Fatiha is also called a nuclear, a nuclear meaning that which is recited for the purpose of healing. And why is it called a nuclear because we learn in a narration about how some companions were traveling and they stopped at a place and they expected that, you know the locals would host them but the locals
refused to host them. But soon after that, you know, someone came to them asking that is there any doctor among you, because our leader our chief has been bitten by a venomous creature. So one of the companions got up and he went and he recited sudo Fatiha okay. And the man was cured. And then later on when the Companions mentioned this to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said well ma you the DECA and know how to clear how did you know that Surah Fatiha is grouped here. So based on this some aroma they say Susan Fatiha is also called a Rukia. And we learned that the different people different scholars before they refer to sort of
refer to her as a Hamed as the praise because Surah Fatiha contains within it, praise of Allah azza wa jal they also called it l cavea. l cavea. Meaning that which suffices that which is enough and sufficient. And they also called it a Shiva, the healing. And if you think about it, so many names and so many descriptions of the surah. Not only do they tell us about the themes of the sutra or the message of the surah. These names and descriptions also reflect the fact that the surah is so important, because when someone has many names and many descriptions, each description is a form of praise. Each description is a quality and the many names and many descriptions. And this shows that
this being or this thing has many qualities. So it is extremely honorable, very distinguished, very special. So the many names of the surah show us the fact that the surah is indeed very, very significant. And when we look at the different virtues of the Surah, the different merits of the surah there are so many a hadith that tell us about the importance of the surah we learn in a hadith how the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was told by an angel that rejoice in the two lights that have been given to you which have not been given to any profit before you and these are Fatiha told Kitab and the concluding verses of Surah Al Baqarah. You will never recite it let
hear from them, except that you will be given something for its recitation. So the recitation of the surah is a source of reward, but it is also a source of blessing. Some benefit. We learn another Hadith about how the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah has not revealed in the Talat nor in the Injeel any Surah like omole kitab like omole Quran meaning Surah Fatiha. So there is really nothing like sunnah told Fatiha in any previous scripture. It's unique. It's one of its kind. In another Hadith we learned the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam was once on a journey, and a man came to him and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was talking to him, and he turned
towards him and he said that Shall I not inform you, of the best part of the Quran be of Belial Quran? And the man said, yes, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam recited Surah Fatiha to him. So this shows us that circle Fatiha is the best portion of the Quran. In another Hadith we learn Sorry, didn't know more Allah He said that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam told me Shall I teach you the greatest Surah of the Quran? The greatest surah Allah Allah Mussoorie filled Quran and then he told him that it is suited to Fatiha and so little fattier is also a healing and it is also a prayer a conversation with Allah subhanaw taala as we will learn later, inshallah Sudha Fatiha, it's
Revelation, we learned that it was revealed in Makkah, before the Prophet sallallahu Urdu Sena migrated to Medina. So it is, in fact, one of the earlier sutras that were revealed, and we learned that it is the first Surah to be revealed in its entirety. So for example, sudo Talaq Yes, it is the first revelation, but all of saluted Allah was not given to the Prophets of Allah who already was set him at the first revelation, only the beginning of it was given and the rest of it was revealed later on. But Surah Fatiha is a first Surah that was revealed in its entirety and it is one of the early soldiers early sources. So, this shows us that it is extremely important for every Muslim for
all of us. Now, when it comes to the number of verses of Surah Al Fatiha then it is well known that it has seven verses, right. It has seven verses in some recitations, we see that the bus Mala which is Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim it is considered as the first idea. So in some most have, you will see this, that after Bismillahi Rahmani Raheem, you will see the number one which indicates that it's the first idea. And in other recitations, we see that the first idea is actually Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil aalameen. In that case, the last verse is divided into two. So the difference is just in the numbering, or rather where it stops, and it ends. It is well known that the recitation of the Quran
should begin with Bismillah Al Rahman Rahim and Surah Al Fatiha because it is called a separate rumor Thani, the seven oft repeated verses, it has seven verses. So this is the introduction to the surah. And in sha Allah Now we're going to look at the translation and the word analysis. So in order to do this, I want to make sure that you have your book with you the book with the translation, the word for word translation, or if you don't have the physical copy, then at least you should have the PDF. And during the translation time, what I want you to do is to have the PDF or the book open in front of you so that you can see the word for word translation. And during this
session, Inshallah, which is going to be called the translation and word analysis section of the class. During the session, we're going to go over the word for word meaning. And we're also going to look at the word analysis. And this means that we're going to look at the word breakup, the meaning of the words, and the relationship of the words before and after meaning within the sentence within the verses in sha Allah, this course is such that you are expected to learn the translation pay, you are expected to memorize the word for word translation. So as you can see it in your PDF. And if you don't have it, you can see on the screen that next to each word is the translation. So remember that
what makes listener different from a student of knowledge, all of us are eager to listen to something beneficial, but there's something that sets apart a student of knowledge, meaning a person who is learning knowledge, and that a student of knowledge retains or tries to retain and memorize what they're learning. So in this course, you are expected to memorize the trends
Question and the way that you will do it is you take each idea alright so for example, our although I seek refuge and you say that a couple of times and Inshallah, when we go over the meaning of these words you'll be able to memorize them easily. So, you say it a couple times the best is say seven times and through that inshallah you will be able to memorize, then you go over the whole idea. So for example, a rule do I seek refuge Billahi in Allah min against a che plan the shaitan of regime, the one who is outcast. So you say that seven times and in sha Allah by the end of seven times you should have retained most of it. Another thing I want you to know about the translation is that you
will see in some places that certain words are bolded in a box, and other words are not so for example, the word hola Jean, you can see the translation, the one who is stoned slash outcast, and the word stoned is not bolded. The word Outcast is bolded. So you are expected to memorize just the bolded words, the one who is outcast. So why is the word stoned there? You will inshallah learn that in the word analysis, because stoned is the literal meaning of the word. But contextually, it doesn't mean stoned it means the one who has been outcast. So this is why you are expected to learn the contextual meaning because this is not a dictionary. When we study the Quran, we don't just
refer to the dictionary, we have to see every word in its context. And we have to see how the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam explained those verses, we have to see how those words or those concepts have been explained elsewhere in the Quran. So it's not enough to know just the literal meaning of the words, it's necessary for us to also know the contextual meaning of the words as well. So we're going to go over the word for word meaning. And as I read the translation, I want you to read the translation out loud. So for example, when I say oh, do I seek refuge, I want you to say the translation out loud for yourself, Inshallah, so we're gonna go over the translation, that role
do I seek refuge Billahi in Allah, Min against a che plan, the shaitan of regime, the one who is outcast? This meet with name, Allah, He of Allah, Allah Jimin, the extremely merciful. And Rahim, the Ever Merciful, Al hamdu all praise Lilla he is due to Allah is for Allah alone. Rabhi rub Allah Allah Amin of the world's a rush man, the extremely merciful al Rahim, the Ever Merciful, Maliki sovereign yo me off day a dean of the repayment a Yucca you alone narrow boodle.
