It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, that once I presented myself before the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, had just returned after relieving himself. I said, "Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him," but the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did not reply to me. This happened three times in the same way. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, walked on, and I followed behind him until the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, entered his tent, and I went and sat in the mosque, sad and sorrowful. After a short while, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, came out after performing ablution and said once, "And peace and mercy of Allah be upon you." Then he said, "O Abdullah bin Jabir! Shall I not tell you about the best Surah of the Noble Qur'an?" I said, "Why not, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Recite 'Alhamdulillahi Rabbil Aalameen' (i.e., Surah Al-Fatiha) till the end."
