Tahlīl (تهليل, التَّهْلِيلِ)

Extollation of Oneness

تفسير القمي أَبِي عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنِ الرِّضَا ع قَالَ: نَزَلَتْ سُورَةُ الْأَنْعَامِ جُمْلَةً وَاحِدَةً شَيَّعَهَا سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ لَهُمْ زَجَلٌ بِالتَّسْبِيحِ وَ التَّهْلِيلِ وَ التَّكْبِيرِ فَمَنْ قَرَأَهَا سَبَّحُوا لَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ

 Tafseer Al Qummi – My father, from Al-Husayn Bin Khalid,

From Al-Reza^-asws having said: ‘Surah Al Anaam was Revealed as a whole in one go. It was escorted by seventy thousand Angels. For them was a buzz with the glorifications, and the extollations of Oneness, and the exclamations of greatness. The one who recites it, they will be glorifying (Allah^-azwj) for him up to the Day of Qiyamah’.^[1]
