(I asked my Lord a question and I wished I had not asked Him. I said: There were prophets before me, some of whom the wind was made to obey, and some of whom raised the dead. He said: O Muhammad, did I not find you an orphan and take you in? I said: Yes, my Lord. He said: Did I not find you lost and guide you? I said: Yes, my Lord.)

The Shaykh : The questioner says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

I asked my Lord a question and I wished I had not asked Him. I said: There were prophets before me, some of whom the wind was made to obey, and some of whom raised the dead. He said: O Muhammad, did I not find you an orphan and take you in? I said: Yes, my Lord. He said: Did I not find you lost and guide you? I said: Yes, my Lord.

سألت ربي مسألة وددت أني لم أسأله قلت قد كان قبلي أنبياء منهم من سُخّرت له الريح ومنهم من يُحيي الموتى قال يا محمد ألم أجدك يتيما فأويتك قلت بلى يا ربي قال ألم أجدك ضالا فهديتك قلت بلى يا رب

Is this hadith authentic? The answer is that its status does not come to mind at the moment, and I hope to be able to review it, and perhaps I will provide the answer in the next meeting, if Allah wills.
