Sirat al-Mustaqim

Sirat al-Mustaqim

Sirat al-Mustaqim is the Arabic term for "the straight path". In an Islamic context, it has been interpreted as "the right path", Islamic faith or "that which pleases God". It can also refer to the Sirat al-Jahim, the bridge of hell.

There are five obligatory daily prayers in Islam. During the two first cycles of each prayer the following phrase is included::"Ihdina s-siraata l-mustaqeem, Siraata l-latheena anamta alaihim ghair al-mughdoobi alaihim wa la daaleen

:"Show us the straight path, The path of those You bestowed favor upon, not anger upon, and not of those who go astray. [See Salat for references]

This is included when the believer recites Surah Al-Fatiha.
