Surah Fatiha The greatest surah of the Quran

           Surah Fatiha The greatest surah of the Quran

In Hadith, while the angel Jibreel was sitting with the Prophet صلى ا عليه وسلم, Jibreel heard a noise from above and said this is a door being opened in heaven and it has never been opened before, and then an angel came down and said receive these two lights the Al Fatihah and ending ayets of Al Baqrah never revealed to any prophet before which shows the importance of Al Fatihah.

The first etiquette when reciting the Quran is to seek refuge with Allah from shaytan because Allah سبحانه وتعالى says in Surah Nahal Verse 98 when you recite the Quran first seek refuge in Allah from the Shaytan the expelled.

Although shaytan always whispers to us, he becomes more active when we walk upon Allah’s path and especially when we reach the stage of opening the book of Allah because he is worried that people will connect with the Quran, that they will connect with Allah سبحانه وتعالى and that means they will no longer remain in his control.

Allah سبحانه وتعالى says in the Quran indeed, my servants, no authority will you have over them except those that follow you of the deviators. So when we are studying the Quran, when we want to learn shaytan will put whispers, he will say things like this is very difficult for you, maybe this verse has a different meaning, he will put these whispers and that is why we seek protection when we begin the Quran so we can be protected from the whispers of the shaytan.
