Is the statement mentioned about the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, which describes the creation of Adam and his vision of five luminous specters and their naming from the Beautiful Names of Allah, and that they are the cause of the creation of the universe, followed by the mention of Adam's supplication through them, an authentic or a fabricated Hadith?
This report is among the fabrications of the Shia. They do not possess any sound reports that are exclusive to them, due to the prevalence of falsehoods among them and the anonymity of their narrators. They believe what scholars know by necessity to be false. The signs of fabrication in the report are evident, among them: the claim that Allah commanded Adam to seek intercession through Muhammad and his household, that the universe was created for their sake, and that the Household of the Prophet are the Ark of Salvation. These claims are baseless. Salvation lies in following the Quran and Sunnah and the consensus of the Ummah. The Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah are unanimous in their love for the Prophet's Household, and this is a fundamental principle of their creed. However, they share this love with the rest of the Companions, maintaining purity of heart and tongue towards the Companions of the Messenger. The Ahl al-Sunnah disavow the methodology of the Rawafid, who harbor hatred and insult the Companions, and the methodology of the Nawasib, who harm the Household of the Prophet.
