3785. It was narrated that Abu Sa'eed bin Mu'allâ said: “The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said to me: ‘Shall I not teach you the greatest Surah in the Qur'ân before I leave the mosque?’ Then the Prophet ﷺ went to leave, so I reminded him, and he said: Al-hamdu tillâhi Rabbil-âlamîn (All the praise is to Allâh, the Lord of all that exists). It is the Seven Oft-Recited Verses, and it is the Grand Qur'ân that has been given to me.” (Sahih)
3785 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُعَلَّى قَالَ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ أَعْظَمَ سُورَةٍ فِي الْقُرْآنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ؟» قَالَ: فَذَهَبَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيَخْرُجَ، فَأَذْكَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، وَهِيَ السَّبْعُ الْمَثَانِي، وَالْقُرْآنُ الْعَظِيمُ الَّذِي أُوتِيتُهُ»

a. Surat Al-Fātiḥah is called Sab'a Mathānī (seven that are recited constantly) because it is recited in every Rak'ah of all prayers. b. Surat Al-Fātiḥah is named 'Qur'ān 'Azīm' (the great Qur'ān) since it covers briefly all the subjects of the Qur'ān. It covers belief of monotheism, practical monotheism, i.e., worshipping Allāh alone, seeking help from Him alone, His attributes, believing in the Hereafter, His promise and threat, the previous Prophets and taking lessons from the stories of their good and bad people and seeking guidance from Him, and the like of important subjects.
