The question

What is the authenticity of the Hadith: "Whoever says ten words at the end of every prayer will find Allah sufficient and rewarding for them: five for this world and five for the Hereafter: Allah is sufficient for my religion, Allah is sufficient for my worldly affairs, Allah is sufficient for what troubles me, Allah is sufficient for those who oppress me, Allah is sufficient for those who envy me, Allah is sufficient for those who plot evil against me, Allah is sufficient at death, Allah is sufficient at the questioning in the grave, Allah is sufficient at the Scales, Allah is sufficient at the Sirat, Allah is sufficient, there is no god but He; in Him I trust, and to Him I turn"?

The answer

Al-Hakim al-Tirmidhi, the author of Nawadir al-Usul, is not among the firmly established scholars, and his book al-Nawadir is a source of fabricated hadiths. Scholars have indeed criticized him. Al-Dhahabi mentioned that Al-Sulami said they expelled him from Tirmidh and bore witness to his disbelief because of his writings in which he preferred sainthood (wilaya) over prophethood (nubuwah). The absence of the inquired-about hadith in any other book besides his is sufficient to rule it as fabricated. The mentioned hadith is a lie attributed to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, for its chain of transmission includes Al-Hakim al-Tirmidhi, and his shaykh in the isnad is unknown, and Na'im ibn Hammad is weak, and there is criticism regarding the narration of Abdullah ibn Buraydah from his father.
