The beauty of 1st ayah of Fatehah, in Quran
Sharing from Sh. Musleh Khan
It's amazing...
Allah starts off his entire Quran with the very first ayat about Praise and security( Fatiha V:1)
Why? Here are a couple of Psychological benefits:
1. When addressing anyone, focus on praiseworthy qualities about yourself and them. This way, the conversation always remains on a positive light.
2. Always give hope that life is not within our control, but the decisions we make are pre-ordained(Qadr) by the one that knows what is best all of us..Allah swt.
3. Notice Allah doesn't start off by telling us " this is haram" "this is halal", "don't do this" " don't do that" and so on..The golden rule of Da'wa, "Never start off by focusing on the faults of others"
Allah calls us to him, to praise him, to worship him and to acknowledge that he is our "Rabb"( Guardian) always and forever.
4. Allah says " 'Alaameen"(All of Mankind)not "muslimeen" or
"mu'mineen".. This shows us that our presence in this world should always steer us towards gratitude to Allah swt and love and security for ALL mankind.
A perfect way to begin his revelation by the Perfect One, Allah swt.
Just Perfect :)
