Yesterday, I had a religion class at my surau in SS18 and the imam taught us about Surah Al-Fath (meaning “Victory”). Let me give some summary here. I think it is a good idea in this bright Monday morning I share a motivational post for us to start our day, especially to muslim friends.

It is a 48th surah of the Holy Quran in order. Al-Fath takes its name from the word Fath meaning “Victory”. The surah was revealed in Medina, Saudi Arabia on Muhammad (peace be upon him), which occurs several times, and refers, not to the conquest of Mecca but to the truce of Al-Hudaibiyah, which, though at the time it seemed a setback to the Muslims, proved in fact the greatest victory for Al-Islam.

Now I would like you to listen to this beautiful recital of this surah by Ibrahim Aljibreen

The Full text translation of Surah Al-Fath is here.Since this surah is for victory, all muslims are encourage to recite this surah every day after dawn prayer to seek baraqah or blessings from All Mighty ALLAH. Preferably before you observe your Ish’raq prayer at about 7:10am and of course before you go out to work.
