Question : Your light has been completed, and you have been guided, so praise is for you, and your forbearance is great, and your status is noble. Is the use of the word "status" (jāh) in this report a matter of mere information? Or who said that this is authentic? Seven...

Answer : Your knowledge is limited; this is not valid. 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and the other Companions did not engage in this kind of effort. The most they did in their supplications for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) was simple. They did not do these elaborate efforts with rhyming and distant meanings. These things probably came from those who transmitted from 'Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) in Nahj al-Balagha and other works, from sermons and exhortations that have no restraint. Prepared by the Project of the Senior Scholars of Kuwait, may Allah honor it with tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and the Sunnah.
