The answer

Surat Al-Fatihah is of great importance, but the does not command its recitation before every reading of the Quran or for blessings. The best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. Therefore, this action should be abandoned so that it does not become an innovation (bid'ah). Reciting Al-Fatihah after supplication, after reading the Quran, or before marriage is an innovation because there is no evidence for it from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, or his companions.
