What is the authenticity of the hadith in which the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "O Allah, carry, and You are the Carrier," and is the name "al-Hamil" (the Carrier) among the Most Beautiful Names of Allah?

The narrated by Abu Nu'aym about Jabir, a boy with a broken hand, and the Prophet's supplication: "O Allah, You are the Bearer, and You are the One Who Bears," has a weak chain of transmission. This is because 'Ata' ibn al-Sa'ib became confused in his later days, and Abu al-Ahwas heard from him after this confusion. Furthermore, scholars of Islam have not mentioned the name "al-Hamil" (the Bearer) among the Most Beautiful Names of Allah.
