Fatwa No: 224797

Question

Assalam-u-Alaikum! I want to ask 2 important questions: 1) I need referenced of book or narration about this sentence of Musa (A.S) and also completing this sentence: "Prophet Musa (A.S) asked to ALLAH (S.W.T) that if I had ALLAH and You were Musa then what will you ask me?" 2) Tableegh Jamat said that if anyone perform 1 Namaz in the way of ALLAH (S.W.T) than 1 Namaz will be equivalent to 49 million.? Please give me referenced or book.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

We have not come across these two statements in any of the books of the scholars; but it is evident from their ugliness of meaning and weakness of wording that they are fabricated lies. Ibn Al-Qayyim said: “We draw attention to some general matters by which a Hadeeth is known to be fabricated, among which is: weakness and ugliness of the wording of the Hadeeth in a way that the ear ejects it and the natural instinct rejects it and the intelligent person finds its meaning ugly.” He also said: “The fabricated Ahaadeeth have a gloominess, weakness of wording and dull and reckless meanings that call out their fabrication.”

Allah Knows best.
