What is the rank of the Hadith: "The scholars of my Ummah are superior to the prophets of Bani Israel," and what is meant by it?

This wording is falsely attributed to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and it has appeared in the books of innovators for them to use as proof for their innovations. Al-'Ajluni and al-Qari have mentioned it in books on fabricated hadith. The Prophet is superior to the saint (wali), and this is an established fact, both rationally and textually. Innovators mix truth with falsehood to propagate their false beliefs. Therefore, a Muslim must be cautious and verify when acquiring their religion, and they should ask trustworthy people of knowledge.
