Ibn Katheer (may Allaah have mercy on him) said, "The scholars say it (Soorah al-Faatihah) contains 25 words and 113 letters. "
Sheikh Abdulaziz al-Rajhi (one of the foremost students of sheikh Bin Baz rahimahullaah) in his explanation of this Soorah says,
"one must completely recite the words and letters and if one letter is dropped from these letters then the prayer is not accepted?it also contains 11 shada's (emphasis on a letter to make it double)? also if one changes the meaning in their recitation such that they say iyyaaki na'budu then the prayer is nullified until they repeat it because here the meaning has changed to addressing Allaah with a feminine pronoun. Or one says Ahdina and not ihdina then their prayer is nullified because the meaning has changed from guide us to gift us?" see tape 1 explanation of ibn Katheer sharh of Soorah al-Faatihah by Sheikh Abdulaziz al-Rajhi.

قال تعالى:{إنا نحن نزلنا الذكر وإنا له لحافظون} قال الشيخ السعدي - رحمه الله - في تفسيره (3/31): " فلا يحرف محرف معنى من معانيه( القرآن ) إلا وقيض الله له من يبين الحق المبين وهذا من أعظم آيات الله ونعمه على عباده المؤمنين".
