With the Glorious Name of God, the Ultimate Source of Instant, Beneficence and Eternal mercy Who encompasses the entire Universe, nourishing and taking care of all things for what they are meant to be; just as a mother's womb nourishes the embryo to completion without any returns.

Surah 1:4                مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّين

- which is with you at all times, for you to follow.

1:4 (He is) the Absolute Owner of the Day when all creation shall have completed their journey of existence, action and evolution to the Ultimate Just outcome. And He is the Supreme Appointer of the System of Life that mankind may live by in order to attain success in both lives. All decisions in this System will be made according to Divine Commands given in this Book. And this System will most certainly prevail over all man made systems in this world. The Divine law of Just Recompense is gradually taking mankind to the Day of Final Judgment in His Court to account for all they did with their gift of life. This is a Day the advent of which is beyond any doubt.

1:4 Master of the Day of Judgment.

1:5 You alone we worship; You alone we ask for help.

1:5 Thee (alone) we worship; Thee alone we ask for help.

You must not break and demolish the path, which is original and most straight, undeviating and unceasing.

1:6 (So,) Guide us to the straight path.

1:6 Guide us in the right path:

1:6 Show us the straight path,

1:6 Show us the straight way,

1:6 Guide us the straight way.

                                                             لا الضَّالِّينَ 

The original and straight path is pleasant and delightful on which, I make life easy.  I have set a banner and a standard for you, to avoid irreparable damage to yourselves.  Who become angry and revengeful with this path, will be greatly confounded and perplexed; even unable to see the right course.

1:7 The path of those upon whom You have bestowed blessings (as a natural consequence of obeying the commands. 2:47, 31:20). Not (the path) of those who earned Your wrath (the naturally bitter consequences of misdeeds), nor of those who lost their direction.

1:7 the path of those whom You blessed; not of those who have deserved wrath, nor of the strayers.

1:7 The path of those whom Thou hast favored; Not (the path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray.

1:7 The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose (portion) is not wrath, and who go not astray.

1:7 The way of those upon whom Thou hast bestowed Thy blessings,

1:7 The path of those whom You have blessed, not those who have incurred the wrath, nor the misguided.
