The reason for naming al-Fatihah the Mother of the Qur'an

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Umm Abdullah asks: Why is al-Fatihah called the Mother of the Qur'an?

Answer:
The "mother" of a thing is that to which things return, and al-Fatihah is the mother of the Qur'an because the surahs of the Qur'an and the Qur'an itself return to it and are explained by it. Yes.
