It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning the saying of Allah "al-Sab' al-Mathani" that he counted them out in front of me on his fingers: "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful (1). All praise is for Allah, Lord of all the worlds (2). The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful (3). Master of the Day of Judgement (4). You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help (5). Guide us to the straight path (6). The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favour, not of those who have earned (Your) anger, nor of those who have gone astray (7)." Then he said: Allah has brought this surah out for you and has not made it manifest for anyone other than you.
