Question

Is the following Dua authentic or fabricated?

اللهم اني اسألك تمام الوضوء و تمام الصلاة…

Answer

Hafidh Ibn Hajr Asqalaani Rahimahullah – a senior scholar of Hadith- has classified this Hadith as extremely weak. Ibn Jowzi has stated that it is not authentic from Rasulullah Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam and used words of criticism in regard to the narration, hence it should not be quoted as a Masnoon Dua even though the meaning is correct.
