Question:

Is this Hadith authentic?

لكل نبي دعوة فأريد إن شاء الله أن أختبي دعوتي شفاعة لأمتي يوم القيامة

Answer:

Imams Bukhari and Muslim (rahimahumallah) have recorded this Hadith. It is therefore authentic.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reported that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Every Nabi had an [accepted] du’a. I wish -if Allah wills- to reserve mine to intercede for my Ummah on the day of Qiyamah.”

(Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 7474, Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 198. Also see: Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 6304-6305 and Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 199-200)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
