Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : One of the brothers in Germany sent us a message asking about tracing the sources of some hadiths so that we can ask you, may Allah reward you with all good. In the first hadith, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Allahumma inni a'udhu bika min 'ilmin la yanfa'u اللهم أعوذ بك من علم لا ينفع
Sunan an-Nasa'i 5536Sahih (Darussalam)
Is the hadith authentic?

The Shaykh : Yes, it is authentic.

The questioner : The second hadith, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
A sign of Allah the Exalted turning away from a servant is his preoccupation with what does not concern him, and if a person spends an hour of his life in something other than the worship for which he was created, he is deserving of a long regret, and if one passes forty years without his good deeds outweighing his evil deeds, let him prepare for the Fire علامة إعراض الله تعالى عن العبد اشتغاله بما لا يعنيه , وإن امرءٌ ذهبت ساعة من عمره في غير ما خُلق له من العبادة لجدير أن تطول عليه حسرته , ومن جاوز الأربعين ولم يغلب خيره على شره فليتجهّز إلى النار
?

The Shaykh : We do not know it. Look in al-Jami' al-Kabir by al-Suyuti, or others.

The questioner : The third hadith is from Shaddad ibn Aws from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said:
The clever person ids the one who subjugates his soul, and works الكيّس من دان نفسه وعمل ...
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2459Da'if (Darussalam)


The Shaykh : It is weak.

The questioner : Yes?

The Shaykh : It is weak.

The questioner : Yes, it was narrated by al-... and it is weak. The other hadith is from Jabir ibn Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The mother of Sulaiman bin Dawud said to Sulaiman: “O my son, do not sleep too much at night, for sleeping too much at night will leave a man poor on the Day of Resurrection.” قالت أم سليمان بن داود لسليمان عليه السلام : يا بني لا تكثر النوم بالليل فإن كثرة النوم بالليل تترك الرجل فقيرا يوم القيامة
Sunan Ibn Majah 1332Da’if (Darussalam)


The Shaykh : It is weak.

The questioner : It was narrated by ...

The Shaykh : What?

Another questioner: It is not there.

The Shaykh : A sign

Another questioner : A sign of replacement, a sign of Allah's love

The Shaykh : No, there is none

Another questioner : A sign of the hypocrite, but these three

The Shaykh : Ah, yes?

The questioner : He (peace be upon him), (peace and blessings be upon him), said:
Three sounds that Allah the Exalted loves: the sound of the rooster, the sound of the one who recites the Qur'an, and the sound of those who seek forgiveness in the last part of the night ثلاثة أصوات يحبها الله تعالى صوت الديك وصوت الذي يقرأ القرآن وصوت المستغفرين بالأسحار


The Shaykh : We do not know it. Also, check this one about the three sounds.

The questioner : The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Work for your worldly life according to your status in it, and work for your Hereafter according to your duration in it. And work for Allah according to your need for Him, and work for the Fire according to your patience for it اعمل لدنياك بقدر مقامك فيها واعمل لآخرتك بقدر بقائك فيها واعمل لله بقدر حاجتك إليه واعمل للنار بقدر صبرك عليها


The Shaykh : The first half is weak, and the second half we do not know.

The questioner : Here is a hadith where the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
We, the prophets, were commanded to speak to people according to the capacity of their minds نحن معاشر الأنبياء أُمرنا أن نكلم الناس على قدر عقولهم


The Shaykh : It is weak.

The questioner : Weak. A hadith where the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Indeed, Allah does not look at your forms or your deeds, but He looks at your hearts and your intentions إن الله لا ينظر إلى صوركم ولا إلى أعمالكم ولكن ينظر إلى قلوبكم ونياتكم


The Shaykh
to your hearts and your deeds إلى قلوبكم وأعمالكم
It is authentic in Muslim [the phone rings]

The questioner :
(peace and blessings be upon him) would allocate that to some of his rooms and say: “O Allah, make the sustenance of the family of Muhammad just enough.” صلى الله عليه وسلم يعد ذلك لبعض حجراته وقال: اللهم اجعل قوت آل محمد كفافا


The Shaykh : How is it, what?

The questioner : He was counting that

The Shaykh : What is that? Read from before.

The questioner : There is none. Here it says the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was counting that for some of his rooms and said: O Allah, make the sustenance of the family of Muhammad just sufficient.

The Shaykh : Authentic. We did not understand this introduction.

The questioner : Nor do we have it?

The Shaykh : O Allah, make

The questioner : The sustenance

The Shaykh : Of the family of Muhammad just sufficient

The questioner : He means he wants to know if this supplication is reported in the athar or not: "O Allah, I ask You of blessing its completeness, of protection its permanence, of mercy its encompassing nature, of well-being its attainment, of life its most abundant, of lifespan its most happy, of excellence its most perfect, of favor its most comprehensive, of grace its most intense, and of kindness its closest. O Allah, be for us and not against us." Is this supplication reported?

The Shaykh : We do not know it in the marfu' (traced to the Prophet), and it appears that it has signs of fabrication.
