4- Recitation of Suratul Fatiha:

The prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) used to say:
A'uzu bil-llahi minash shayta nir-rajeem
This means: I seek refuge with Allaah from the Evil One, the Rejected

Bisimllah hir-rahman nir-raheem
This means: In the Name of Allaah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy

Alhamdu lil-lahi rab-bil 'alameen
This means: Praise is only for Allah, Lord

Ar-Rahma nir-raheem
This means: The Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy

Maliki yawmid-deen
This means: Master of the Day of Judgment

Iyyaka na'budu wa iyyaka nasta'een
This means: You alone we worship and u to you alone we pray for help

Ihdinas siratal mostaqeem
This means: Show us the straight way

Siratal lazeena an'amta 'alayhim ghayril maghdubi 'alayhim
walad dal-leen
This means: The way of those whom you have blessed .. Who have not desrved your anger, Nor gone astray

Ameeen
This means: Oooh Allah please accept


Note:

1- The Prophet peace be upon him said : " No prayer is acceptable without the recitation of Fathiha "

2- In Zuhr and Asr you have to recite it quitly as Jaabir said : We used to recite behind the imaam in Zuhr and 'Asr: soorah al-Faatihah and another soorah in the first two rak'ahs, and soorah al-Fatihah in the last two."

3- If you are praying in Jama'a then you should raise your voice when you are saying "Ameen "
4- Becarful :"The Prophet peace be upon him finished a prayer in which he was reciting loudly (in one narration: it was the dawn prayer) and said: Were any of you reciting with me just now?! A man said: "Yes, I was, O Messenger of Allaah". He said: I say, why am I contended with? "... This thing mean don't recite when the Imam is reciting.
