[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.' It consists of seven verses, one of which is {In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful}. It is the seven oft-repeated verses, and the Great Quran, and it is the mother of the Quran, and it is the opening chapter of the Book."

البيهقي:٢٣٨٩ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي قَالَا ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ ثنا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنِي نُوحُ بْنُ أَبِي بِلَالٍ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ سَبْعُ آيَاتٍ إِحْدَاهُنَّ {بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ} [الفاتحة 1] وَهِيَ السَّبْعُ الْمَثَانِي وَالْقُرْآنُ الْعَظِيمُ وَهِيَ أُمُّ الْقُرْآنِ وَهِيَ فَاتِحَةُ الْكِتَابِ
