Author: elhabibsaleh  | Posted: 11-05-2008 | Comments: 0 | Views: 18 | Rating: (162)  (?) 
 Surah 1 of the Noble Quran (Chapter 1) is called AL-FAATEHAH (THE KEY). It is also called the "Mother of the Quran" and also the "Surah of the Pray". It is interested that Muslims have to read it in their five prays every day.
This means that, any Muslim had to read it at least 17 times a day.
-------------------
Short account about the meanings of verses 1:1-4 of the Noble Quran:
Verse 1:1 says:
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Compassionate the Merciful
It is recommended to recite this verse before reading the Quran, before eating, before doing your job etc.
It means that I do so and so in the name of Allah who creates me.
Of course, if you respect your creator, and you do everything in his name, then you will never do any evil deeds.
Verse 1:2 says:
All Praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds means:
Laudation is Allah's in that He is kind towards His created beings and, hence, they praise Him.
It is also said that laudation is Allah's because of His excessive blessings upon His servants whom He has guided to believe in Him.
It is also said: laudation, absolute unity and godhood all belong to Allah Who has neither progeny, partner, helper nor an assistant.
Lord of the worlds means:
Lord of any that has a spirit and walks about on the face of the earth and also of the dwellers of heaven.
It is also said that this means: the Master of the jinn and human beings.
It is also said that, Lord of the worlds, means the Creator of all created beings, their Provider and the One Who changes them from one state into another.
It is also said that this means that Allah is the One Who owns all of creation: humans, jinn, angels, animals and others as well, each of which may be referred to as a ‘world’
In short, the worlds mean everything and anything save Allah.
Of course, no one can praise Allah, the Creator, properly unless he knows all the gifts that Allah provides mankind and also knows what the different worlds present around mankind are.
Verse 1:3 says:
Again, Allah reminds mankind that He is the Compassionate, the Beneficent, the Gentle, the Merciful: that is to say, the One who possesses ‘mercy’, which means to want what is good for those who deserve it.
Verse 1:4 says:
Allah is the Master of the Day of Judgment
Allah is the Owner of the Day of Judgment
The Day of Judgment is the Day of Reckoning and settlement of disputes between created beings, i.e. the Day when people are judged according to their deeds; there is no judge save Him.
The reason for the specific mention [of the Day of Judgment] is that the mastery of none shall appear on that Day except that of God, may He be exalted, as is indicated by [God’s words] ‘Whose is the Kingdom today?’ ‘God’s’ [Read verse 40:16]
Allah He has possession of the entire affair on the Day of Resurrection.
