Commentary
Surat An-Nasr descended in the final period of the Prophet's ﷺ sacred lifetime. It indicated to the Prophet ﷺ the following: the purpose of your advent and your mission has been accomplished. You should now direct your
attention to praising, glorifying, and thanking Allāh profusely. And you should ask forgiveness (of Allāh). Your final journey is near. In compliance to this guidance, Allāh's Messenger ﷺ began to recite the above-mentioned supplication profusely in his bowings and prostrations. The words of 'Aishah ﷺ "following the command of the Qur'ān" point to this matter.
