Relationship of Quran and Fatihah and a recommendation for reading

Question:
Kindly explain your point of view about sura Fatiha in the light of verse 87 of sura Hajar. Is sura Fatiha a part of Quran or is it an addtional gift?

As you have said that it is very important to check first context to understand any Quranic verse, can you recommend any book where we can see the cotext/reason for Nazool of Quran verse wise?

Response:
The seven that are in pairs is the Qur'an itself and not surah fatiha. Surah fatiha
has only six verses where as the Qur'an has seven groups, each one of them containing
surahs that are in pairs 'mathani'.

The tafsir that I think gives the best understanding of the context is 'tadabbur-i-Qur'an' by Mawlana Amin Ahsan Islahi.
