Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some people are circulating this message. How authentic is it? It states:
Sufficient for us is Allah; Allah will give us of His bounty, and [so will] His Messenger; indeed, we are desirous toward Allah,حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ سَيُؤْتِينَا اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ وَرَسُولُهُ إِنَّا إِلَى اللَّهِ رَاغِبُونَ
[At-Tawbah 9:59]
and that Ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “By Allah, I never made this du'a after the final tashahhud in a difficult matter except that it was made easy.” He asks: What is the opinion on this, and have you heard that? May Allah preserve you.

Answer:
By Allah, we have not heard it from the Shaykh, nor have we read it in his books. If the one who transmitted this found it in the Shaykh’s books, he should specify which book and which page. But attributing something to the Shaykh without verification is not permissible. Yes.
