Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #29674

Muhammad bin Bashar narrated to us, Ibrahim bin Omar bin Abi Al-Wazir narrated to us, Zanfal bin Abdullah Abu Abdullah narrated to us, on the authority of Ibn Abu Malika, on the authority of Aisha, on the authority of Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, that when the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, wanted a matter, he would say, “O God, be benevolent to me and choose.” To me. Abu Issa said: This is a strange hadith. We do not know it except from the hadith of Zanfal. It is weak according to the people of hadith and it is called Zanfal Al-Arafi lived in Arafat and was the only one to narrate this hadith, and it will not be followed up on.
