It's very beautiful n very heart breaking.

The Summary of Al-Fatihah

The honorable Surah Al-Fatihah contains seven Ayat including the praise and thanks of Allah, glorifying Him and praising Him by mentioning His most Beautiful Names and most high Attributes. It also mentions the Hereafter, which is the Day of Resurrection, and directs Allah's servants to ask of Him, invoking Him and declaring that all power and strength comes from Him. It also calls to the sincerity of the worship of Allah alone, singling Him out in His divinity, believing in His perfection, being free from the need of any partners, having no rivals nor equals. Al-Fatihah directs the believers to invoke Allah to guide them to the straight path, which is the true religion, and to help them remain on that path in this life, and to pass over the actual Sirat (bridge over hell that everyone must pass over) on the Day of Judgment. On that Day, the believers will be directed to the gardens of comfort in the company of the Prophets, the truthful ones, the martyrs and the righteous. Al-Fatihah also encourages performing good deeds, so that the believers will be in the company of the good-doers on the Day of Resurrection. The Surah also warns against following the paths of misguidance, so that one does not end up being gathered with those who indulge in sin, on the Day of Resurrection, including those who have earned the anger and those who were led astray.

Allah called His Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم an `Abd

Allah called His Messenger an `Abd (servant) when He mentioned sending down His Book, the Prophet's involvement in inviting to Him, and when mentioning the Isra' (overnight journey from Makkah to Jerusalem and then to heaven), and these are the Prophet's most honorable missions. Allah said,

[الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِى أَنْزَلَ عَلَى عَبْدِهِ الْكِتَـبَ]
(All praise and thanks be to Allah, Who has sent down to His servant (Muhammad ) the Book (the Qur'an)) (18:1),

[وَأَنَّهُ لَّمَا قَامَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يَدْعُوهُ]
(And when the servant of Allah (Muhammad ) stood up invoking Him (his Lord ـ Allah in prayer)), (72:19) and,

[سُبْحَانَ الَّذِى أَسْرَى بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلاً]
(Glorified (and Exalted) be He (Allah) (above all that they associate with Him) Who took His servant (Muhammad ) for a journey by night) (17:1).

The Virtue of Al-Fatihah

Imam Ahmad recorded in his Musnad, that a person who was riding behind the Prophet said, "The Prophet's animal tripped, so I said, `Cursed Shaytan.' The Prophet said,


«لَا تَقُلْ: تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ، فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ: تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ، تَعَاظَمَ وَقَالَ: بِقُوَّتِي صَرَعْتُهُ، وَإِذَا قُلْتَ: بِاسْمِ اللهِ تَصَاغَرَ حَتى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الذُبَابِ»


(Do not say, 'Cursed Shaytan,' for if you say these words, Satan becomes arrogant and says, 'With my strength I made him fall.' When you say, 'Bismillah,' Satan will become as small as a fly.)


Further, An-Nasa'i recorded in his book Al-Yawm wal-Laylah, and also Ibn Marduwyah in his Tafsir that Usamah bin `Umayr said, "I was riding behind the Prophet...'' and he mentioned the rest of the above Hadith. The Prophet said in this narration,


«لَا تَقُلْ هكَذَا فَإِنَّهُ يَتَعَاظَمُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ كَالْبَيْتِ، وَلكِنْ قُلْ: بِسْمِ اللهِ، فَإنَّهُ يَصْغَرُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ كَالذُبَابَةِ»


(Do not say these words, because then Satan becomes larger; as large as a house. Rather, say, 'Bismillah,' because Satan then becomes as small as a fly.)


This is the blessing of reciting Bismillah.

Surat Makkiyyah
Surat Ke-1 : 7 ayat

Pendahuluan

Jumlah ayat d dlm al-Quran ada 6000 ayat. Para ulama b'beda pndapat mengenai jumlah yg lebih dr enam ribu t'sebut. Ada yg menyatakan x lbh dr enam ribu t'sebut. Ada pula yg menyatakn jumlahnya 6236 ayat. Yg t'akhir ini dsebutkn oleh Abu Amr al-Dani dlm kitabnya al-Bayan.

Mengenai jumlah kata, menurut al-Fadhl bin Syadzan dari Atha' bin Yasar sebanyak 77.439 kata. Sedangkan mengenai hurufnya, Salam Abu Muhammad al-Hamami mengatakn, al-Hajjaj (al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf) pernah mengumpulkan para qurra' (ahli bacaan al-Qur'an), huffazh (para penghafal al-Qur-an), dan kuttab (para penulis al-Qur-an), lalu ia mengatakan: "Beritahukn kpdku mengenai al-Qur-an secara keseluruhan, berapa hurufnya?" Setelah dhitung mereka sepakat bahwa jumlahnya 340.740 huruf. Kmdian Hajjaj mngatakn: "Sekarang beritahukn kpdku mengenai p'tengahan al-Qur-an." Dan t'nyata p'tghan al-Qur-an itu adlh huruf "فَ" dlm kalimat "وليتلطف" pd surat al-Kahfi.

Para ulama b'beda pndapat mengenai arti kata surat, dr kata apa ia diambil? Ada yg b'pndapat bahwa kata "السورة" itu b'asal dr kata "الإبانة" (kejelasan) dan "الإرتفاع" (ketinggian).

Jama' "السورة" adalah "سُوَرٌ". Ada jg yg mnjama'nya dgn kata "ٌسُوْرَات" dan "سُوَرَاتٌ".
