THE ISLAMIC PRAYER AND THE CHRISTIAN PRAYER

AL- FATHIA(SURAH 1)

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent;

The Merciful.

Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds,

the Beneficent, the Merciful,

Owner of the Day of Judgement.

Thee (alone) we worship;

Thee (alone) we ask for help.

(Quran 2:286)

...Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or

miss our mark!....

Pardon us, absolve us, have mercy on us, Thou

our protector.

And give us victory ov

er disbelieving folk.

Show us the straight path.

The path of those whom Thou has favoured;

Not (the path) of those who earn Thine anger

Nor of those who go astray.

THE LORDS PRAYER

Our Father in Heaven!

Hallowed be your name,

Your kingdom come,

Your will be done,

On earth as it is in

heaven.

Give us today our daily bread.

Forgive us our debts

as we have forgiven our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from the evil one.
