The Prayer of Coffee (The Lesser Fātiha) - Al-Habib Ahmad b. Muhammad Al-Mihdar

Infuse your coffee ritual with tradition and spirituality with The Lesser Fātiha poster—an elegant blend of sacred blessings and coffee culture. This beautifully designed print features a timeless supplication by Al-Habib Ahmad bin Muhammad al-Mihdhar, honouring the sacred tradition and invoking divine blessings for those who partake in this beloved drink.

Hadhramaut, a historical region in Yemen, has played a significant role in the spread of coffee culture across the world. Coffee cultivation flourished in Yemen’s highlands, with Hadhrami scholars, traders, and Sufis carrying this sacred drink to the Ottoman Empire, India, and Indonesia. In Sufi circles, coffee was more than a beverage—it was a spiritual aid, fueling night prayers and gatherings of remembrance (dhikr).

The supplication featured in this poster reflects this deep connection between coffee and the spiritual traditions of Hadhramaut, where scholars and saints gathered over steaming cups of qahwa, seeking divine blessings and clarity of heart.

With stunning watercolour coffee plant illustrations and a warm, inviting aesthetic, this poster is perfect for your home café, coffee shop, or personal prayer space. Whether you’re a lover of coffee or Islamic heritage or both, this piece brings a higher level and meaning to your daily brew.

Printed on high-quality paper for a refined finish, this poster transforms any space into a place of reflection and appreciation. Brew, reflect, and be blessed.
