Name 18 of 99
الْفَتَّاح

Al-Fattah (الْفَتَّاح)

The Opener of Ways

Linguistic Origins & Arabic Root

Root: ف - ت - ح (F-T-H)

Etymology: Opening closed doors, granting victory, unlocking wisdom.

Spelling & Pronunciation

Written: الفتاح — alif · lam · fa · ta · alif · ha.

The article: Arabic fa (ف) is a moon letter, so the lam of the definite article ال stays audible. The Name keeps its Al- form, unlike the fourteen sun letters, which absorb the lam.

Also written: Al Fattah — all romanisations of الفتاح, which has no single official spelling in the Latin alphabet.

Mention in the Holy Quran

“Say, 'Our Lord will bring us together; then He will judge between us in truth. And He is the Knowing Judge/Opener.'”

— Surah Saba (34:26)

Spiritual Significance & Contemplation

When all avenues seem blocked and hope falters, Al-Fattah opens unforeseen pathways of relief, knowledge, reconciliation, and divine success.
