Authentic Supplication Number 64.
Footnotes.
(81) O’ my ‘ilah Lord of this perfect call [of not ascribing partners to You] and of the regular prayer which is about to be established! grant Muhammad the Waseelata [see hadeeth #55 above] and virtue, and send him [on the Day of Judgment] to the praised status which You have promised him.
Reporters.
Reported by ‘Al-Bukhari, and Al-Albani said that Ahmad, and others also reported it. He also said that the addition wa-‘addarajata ar-rafee`ata is not of the hadeeth even though it appears in some books as being traced back to ‘Al-Bukhari. As for the addition of innaka la tukhlifu al-mee`ad at the end of the hadeeth it appears in Sunan ‘Al-Bayhaqi; however, it is deviant. This term is used when a report is by way of a reliable person; yet, contradicts the report of a more reliable person. This Al-Albani pointed out in Takreej ‘al-Manar #24, and Al-Albani included this hadeeth in The Authentic of Good Sayings as #57.
