What are the Seven Repeated Verses?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Finally, he asks about the Seven Repeated Verses?

Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) identified the Seven Repeated Verses as al-Fatihah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Al-Fatihah is the Mother of the Qur'anالفاتحة هي أم القرآن
It is the best of the chapters of the Qur'an, and he said:
which is the seven oft repeated verses (Al-Mathani) and the Grand Qur'an which has been given to me.إنها السبع المثاني، والقرآن العظيم الذي أوتيته
Sahih al-Bukhari 4703
Thus he (peace and blessings be upon him) said, as al-Bukhari narrated in the Sahih. So the Seven Repeated Verses are al-Fatihah:
[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds -الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ۝
[Al-Fatihah 1:2]
the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy [al-Fatihah:2-3], seven verses, the first of which is: (Alhamdulillah), and the last of which is:
not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray.غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْْ وَلا الضَّالِّينَ
[al-Fatihah:7]. So the Basmalah is not part of it; the Basmalah is independent, before every chapter except Surat al-Bara'ah, for which there is no Basmalah before it. As for the rest, every chapter has a prescribed, recommended Basmalah before it, including al-Fatihah: (Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim). This is an independent verse.
As for al-Fatihah, its first is:
[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds -الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
[al-Fatihah:1], the second:
the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercyالرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
[al-Fatihah:2], the third:
Sovereign of the Day of Recompense.مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ
[al-Fatihah:3], the fourth:
It is You we worship and You we ask for help.إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ
[al-Fatihah:4], the fifth:
Guide us to the straight path -اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
[al-Fatihah:5], the sixth:
The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favorصِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْْ
[al-Fatihah:6], the seventh:
not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray.غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلا الضَّالِّينَ
[al-Fatihah:7]. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
