I got this from a web site:
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 Judgment,
Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help.
Guide us on the straight path,
The path of those whom Thou hast favored;
Not (the path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray.
Thank you Sky.

Jazakallah khair, asadsalm.
Here is a list of some of the words, please correct me if i am wrong.
hamd = praise
yawm = judgement
bud = worship
ihdinaa = guide
siraat = path
mustaqiim = straight
alayhim = those
ghayr = not of
allaziina = of those
nastain = ??
magdh ub = ??
daalliin = ??
yawm = day
nasta'een = we ask your help
maghdoob = anger (as in urdu we say Allah ka ghazab)
daa'liin = people who lost that (straight) path
yawm is day. does diin mean judgement?
Just checking if this works.

While pronouncing, should we add a "u" after words that end with "d"? For instance, "Al hamd" is pronounced as "Al hamdU".
Does this apply to all words ending with d or does it depend on the following word?
As u can see above, the "daal" in Al-hamd has a paesh on top, making it "al-hamdu". So it depends on the airaab i.e. zair, zabar and paesh.

pristine! i don’t know urdu either…
Generally, dashe look-alike punctuations are either zair or zabar as you might see in the above surah. zair is usually below the alphabet and zabar is above the alphabet. zair if added under an alphabet sounds like “ee”. For example there is a word called “rub” but if there is a zair below it then it will be read as “rabee”. Similarly, if zabar is added in then it sounds like “aa” and would make “rub” as “rabaa”. paish is normally added above the alphabet and it looks like tilted “wow” (an arabic or urdu alphabet). You might be able to see one paish in the second pic posted by Pristine that there is this character just at the end of the first word “al-hamd”. This punctuation makes it read like “al-hamd-o”. I might make the pictures if I u still don’t understand it.
Yawm-ud-deen means “The day of reward”. The reward can be good or bad and hence meaning the day of judgement.
btw, Thanks Admin for allowing pictures in this fora.

Here is a list of some of the words, please correct me if i am wrong.
alayhim = those
Alayhim - ON THOSE
Alay/Alal/Ala = ON
Rather, write it as, Elay/Elal/Ela
Lets try another one...
112:1 Qul huwa 'allaah 'ah.ad
112:2 'Allaah as. S.amad
112:3 Lam yalid wa lam yulad
112:4 wa lam yakun lahu kufuw(an) 'ah.ad
wa = and
lam = not
S.amad = eternal, absolute
[This message has been edited by aishaA (edited December 12, 2001).]
Qul = Say
Huwa = Is
Ahad = The One
Lam = is/was not / did not
Yalid = Father/Begot/Beget
Wa = And
Yulad = Is an son/Begotten
Samad (I dont know, but doesnt this mean SELF SUFFICIENT? I might be wrong.)
I dont know the rest of the top of my mind right now.
Thank you, asadsalm!
