Al-fatihah
This surah is special because Allah swt. Say "we have given you seven of the often
repeated ones that are full of prays and additionally, we have given you the great quran" and the seven repeated prays are alfatihah. Why? Because, we always recite surah al fatiha every prayer, five times a day, we also use the surah alot.
The surah starts with alhamdulillah the word hamd means 2 different things, praise and thanks. So, when people say alhamdulillah, they are praising and thanking Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. Hamd is also a noun because its timeless. Allah chose the word hamd because if he use a verb, and saying we are praising and thanking Allah, there is no prove that we did it in the past, and will do it in the future.
You cant use this word or sentence for saying something bad, like if someone ask how are you? Then you answer alhamdulillah, im really sick, you are basicaly just undoing what you just say. You use this word for a reason, its because of something good.
What i've learned is to be more grateful, amd to relize what we are saying.
