It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Allah, Mighty and Sublime, said: ‘I have divided the prayer between Me and My servant into two halves, and My servant shall have what he asks for.’ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Recite: When the servant says, “All praise is for Allah, Lord of the worlds,” Allah, Mighty and Sublime, says, “My servant has praised Me, and My servant shall have what he asks for.” When he says, “The Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful,” He says, “My servant has extolled Me, and My servant shall have what he asks for.” When he says, “Master of the Day of Judgment,” Allah says, “My servant has glorified Me. This is for Me, and this verse is shared equally between Me and My servant.” When the servant says, “You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help,” He says, “This is between Me and My servant, and My servant shall have what he asks for.” The end of the surah belongs to My servant. When the servant says, “Guide us to the straight path, the path of those You have favored, not those who have incurred anger, nor those who have gone astray,” He says, “This is for My servant, and My servant shall have what he asks for.”’
