Whoever has a need and does not perform wudu has wronged me

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
A questioner asks, saying: It was reported from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) what means:
Whoever has a need and does not perform wudu has wronged me, and whoever performs wudu and does not pray to me has wronged me, and whoever called me and I did not answer has wronged me,أحدث ولم يتوضأ فقد جفاني، ومن توضأ ولم يصلني فقد جفاني، ومن دعاني ولم أجب فقد جفاني،
Is this hadith authentic or not?

The Shaykh:
This is fabricated, this is fabricated,
Whoever has a need and does not perform wudu has wronged me, and whoever performs wudu and does not pray has wronged me, and whoever has a needمن أحدث ولم يتوضأ فقد جفاني، ومن توضأ ولم يصلي فقد جفاني، ومن أحدث


The questioner:
I rely on you.

The Shaykh:
He called me and I did not answer him, or that he should fight him, all of this is invalid. First, wudu is prescribed when its causes are present. So if one has a need in the morning, wudu does not increase for him until the time of Dhuhr arrives. So it is not the case that whoever leaves wudu at any time of obligation has wronged me. This contradicts the principles and rules of the Shari'ah. He prays. Likewise, if one performs wudu and does not pray, it is not permissible; because the sunnah of wudu is recommended, not obligatory. So if one performs wudu and does not pray the sunnah of wudu and goes to the obligatory prayer only, then he owes nothing. As for the statement "whoever called me and I did not answer him," this is also a greater denial. For the Messenger is not called upon without Allah, nor is he called for aid. So it is major shirk. The Messenger does not call to shirk, (peace and blessings be upon him). And if he names the Messenger, saying "Allah" and not intending it, then as for it being intended, it is not valid. As long as it is from Allah the Exalted, this is not valid, because it is a denial contrary to the authentic hadiths, and it is invalid. Yes, as long as he submits to Allah, it is invalid in any case. But if he submits to the Messenger, it is more invalid and more invalid. Yes.
