Is the Basmalah which is the utterance “In the name of Allah, the most Compassionate, the most Merciful” a Quranic verse? Can we recite it as a separate chapter?
Answer
In the name of Allah, definitely, for Shia Twelvers, the Basmalah is a part of each Quranic chapter, except the chapter of Al-Tawbah (Repentance), and in the chapter of Al-Namil this utterance is repeated twice: at the beginning of the chapter and within the chapter, in the message of the prophet Suleiman (PBUH) to Balqees. If one recites any Quranic chapter –except the chapter of Al-Tawbah (Repentance), he should start with the Basmalah. Allah knows best.
