Line 19: '''Al-Fātiḥah''' ({{lang-ar\| الفاتحة}}, {{IPA-ar\|ʔal faːtiħah\|IPA}}; {{small\|meaning:}} "The Opening" or "The Opener". [[George Sale]] translates simply as ''The Preface'', or ''Introduction'') is the first chapter (''[[surah]]'') of the [[Quran]]. Its seven verses (''[[āyah]]'') are a [[Salah\|prayer]] for the guidance, lordship and mercy of [[God in Islam\|God]].<ref name="Maududi">{{cite book\|last=Maududi\|first=Sayyid Abul Ala\|title=Tafhim Al Quran\|url=http://www.englishtafsir.com/Quran/1/index.html}}</ref> This chapter has an essential role in [[Salah\|Islamic prayer]]. Quranic chapter titles are a human fabrication and are not considered by Muslims to be part of the [[Revelation#Islam\|divine revelation]] of the Quran.<ref>[https://www.emmanuel.utoronto.ca/about-emmanuel/facultystaff-directory/nevin-reda/ Nevin Reda], Introduction to the Quran] in Three Testaments: Torah, Gospel and Quran (Plymouth: Rowman and Littlefield, 2012)</ref> The primary literal meaning of the expression "~~[https://www.miraclesofthequrans.com/2020/11/surah-fatiha.html~~ al-Fātiḥah]" is "The Opener," which could refer to this Surah being "the opener of the Book" (''Fātiḥat al-kitāb''), to its being the first chapter recited in full in every [[Rakat\|prayer cycle (''rakaʿah'')]], or to the manner in which it serves as an opening for many functions in everyday Islamic life. Some Muslims interpret it as a reference to an implied ability of the Surah to open a person to faith in God.<ref>Joseph E. B.
