It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn abu Hamza in a marfu’ manner from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Chapter six ( al-An ’am) was revealed all in one piece escorted by seventy thousand angels until it came down upon Muhammad (a.s.). You must maintain its greatness and respect it. The name of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, is mentioned therein at seventy places.

Had people known what is in reading it, they would not have ignored it.” ضعيف - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (12/511))
