An unreliable narration stating that the angels make du’a for that household that has honey

Answered by 

Shaykh Suhail Motala

Question:

Is this an authentic Hadith:

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “By Him in whose hand is my soul, eat honey, for there is no house in which honey is kept for which the angels will not ask for mercy.”

Answer:

This narration is recorded in Isma’ilis Al Mu’jam on the authority of Sayyiduna Salman (radiyallahu ‘anhu) as part of a longer narration.

However, the Muhaddithun have declared the narration a fabrication. It is therefore not suitable to quote.

(Refer: Tanzihush Shari’ah, vol. 2 pg. 239 and Tadhkiratul Mawdu’at of al Fatani, pg. 150)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
