The response of Allah

Allah responds during salat.

Allah’s response to the one who recites Surah fatiha:

Allah has said: “I have divided prayer between myself and my servant into two halves, and my servant shall have what he has asked for.

When the servant says: “al-hamdu lillaahI rabbil-aalameen

Allah says: “My servant has praised me.

And when he says: “ar-rahmaanir-raheem

Allah says: “My servant has extolled me.

And when he says: “maalikI yawmid-deen

Allah says: “My servant has glorified me.” And on one occasion he said: “My servant has submitted to my power.

And when he says: “iyyaka na'budu wa iyyaka nasta'een

He says: “This is between me and my servant, and my servant shall have what he has asked for.

And when he says: “ihdinas-siraatal mustaqeem, siraatal ladhina an 'amta 'alayhim ghayril-maghdoobI 'alayhim wa lad-daaallin

He says: “This is for my servant, and my servant shall have what he has asked for.
