2887. Anas narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Indeed for everything there is a heart, and the Qur'an's heart is Yā Sīn. Whoever recites Yā Sīn, then for its recitation, Allāh writes for him that he recited the Qur'an ten times." (Da'if)

Commentary
The subjects and contents of the Qur'an may be summed up under three topics: Oneness, Hereafter and the Messenger hood; and these are the principle and fundamental subjects. Sūrat Al-Fātiḥah consists of these, and these subjects have been explained comprehensively in Sūrat Yāsīn. This is how it is the heart of the Qur'an, i.e. the extract, abridgement and the spirit.
