Translation: "(Oh Allah!) Show us the straight way - the way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose (portion) is not wrath, and who go not astray." Ameen. Abdullah Yusuf Ali comments: "The straight Way is often the narrow Way, or the steep way, which many people shun. By the world's perversity the straight Way is sometimes stigmatized and the crooked Way praised. [...] Note that the words relating to Grace are connected actively with Allah; those relating to Wrath are impersonal. In the one case Allah's mercy encompasses us beyond our deserts. In the other case our own actions are responsible for the Wrath - the negative of Grace, Peace or Harmony." (Image text: The Holy Qur'an [1:6-7])
