How to receive sms in android API 25 (Nougat)

Question

I have been using these code to receive sms in actual device android 4.2 and it was working fine, Now I came to know about new permission module so this code in android 7 nougat not working for me.

public class sms extends BroadcastReceiver {
  public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
    SmsMessage[] msgs = null;
    if (bundle != null) {
        Object[] smsExtra = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
        msgs = new SmsMessage[smsExtra.length];

        for (int i = 0; i < msgs.length; i++) {
            SmsMessage sms = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[]) smsExtra[i]);
            String body = sms.getMessageBody().toString();
            String sender = sms.getOriginatingAddress().toString();
            Toast.makeText(context, "From :"+sender+"\n"+"body:"+body, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();


        }
    }
}

}

I found this about marshmallow that there is run time permission required, But i don't get it how and where to add it in my code so that it work in Nougat and below apis.

// in manifest.xml

  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS" />

`But i did not get it how and where to add it` - then you have to get it somehow. Search for `Android 6 runtime permissions`, and you'll find hundreds of tutorials on how to do that. — Vladyslav Matviienko, Jun 09 '17 at 09:01

requestSmsPermission();

private void requestSmsPermission() {
    String permission = Manifest.permission.READ_SMS;
    int grant = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, permission);
    if (grant != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        String[] permission_list = new String[1];
        permission_list[0] = permission;
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, permission_list, 1);

@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions,
                                       @NonNull int[] grantResults) {
    super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
    if (requestCode == 1) {
        if (grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                                            Toast.makeText(AccountClass.this,"permission granted", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();


        } else {

@Override

    setContentView(R.layout.messagebox);


    if (!CheckPermission(MessageBox.this, Manifest.permission.READ_SMS)) {

    }
}

@Override

            }
            return;
