Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 915

This hadith about seven oft-recited is a brief report from Ibn Abbas. He says that the Prophet was given seven of Al-Mathani: the seven long ones. The narration does not list their names or add a separate explanation, so the content should be read with care. Its main value is that it records Ibn Abbas’s wording about what the Prophet was given. For someone searching for seven Mathani hadith or the meaning of seven oft-recited, this report gives one direct wording: the seven long ones. It also belongs near other narrations in this set where Al-Fatihah is called the seven oft-recited, showing that reports may use focused wording in different ways.
