What is the ruling on adding “the high rank” and “You do not break Your promise” to the supplication prescribed after the adhan?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: Sahih Muslim 384 ; so when you make this supplication, it includes that you are supplicating for the Messenger and asking Allah to grant the Messenger (peace be upon him) this status, which is the high rank. Therefore, it is also idle talk to add the phrase “the high rank” to the supplication after the adhan that the Messenger (peace be upon him) taught us. Likewise, some people add at the end of the supplication: Muwatta Malik 20:132 These are two additions that have no basis in the hadith of the Messenger (peace be upon him), and we are commanded to follow everything he (peace be upon him) said and did. This is a reminder, and the reminder benefits the believers, if Allah wills.
The student : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And beware of that.
then beg from Allah al-Wasila for me, which is a rank in Paradise fitting for only one of Allah's servants, and I hope that I may be that one. If anyone who asks that I be given the Wasila, he will be assured of my intercession.
سَلُوا الله لي الوسيلة ؛ فإنها درجة في الجنة لا تنبغي إلا لرجل ، وأرجو أن أكون أنا هو ، فَمَن سأل لي الوسيلة حلَّتْ له شفاعتي يوم القيامةYou do not break Your promise
إنك لا تخلف الميعادThe student : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And beware of that.
