What is the authenticity and source of the dua “اللهم لك الحمد كله…” attributed to Hudhayfah (RA)?
I came across the following dua: اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الحَمْدُ كُلُّهُ، وَلَكَ الشُّكْرُ كُلُّهُ، وَلَكَ المُلكُ كُلُّهُ، وَلَكَ الخَلْقُ كُلُّهُ، بِيَدِكَ الخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ، وَإِلَيْكَ يَرْجِعُ الأَمْرُ كُلُّهُ، أَسْأَلُكَ الخَيْرَ كُلَّهُ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الشَّرِّ كُلِّهِ.

I came across the following dua:
اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الحَمْدُ كُلُّهُ، وَلَكَ الشُّكْرُ كُلُّهُ، وَلَكَ المُلكُ كُلُّهُ، وَلَكَ الخَلْقُ كُلُّهُ، بِيَدِكَ الخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ، وَإِلَيْكَ يَرْجِعُ الأَمْرُ كُلُّهُ، أَسْأَلُكَ الخَيْرَ كُلَّهُ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الشَّرِّ كُلِّهِ.
Some websites attribute it to Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman (رضي الله عنه) and say it appears in Musnad Ahmad, while others mention that the hadith is weak because one narrator in the chain is not named.
I couldn’t find its exact source (which book, which narration, and the full hadith text) and its authenticity.
Can someone provide the precise reference and the scholarly verdict regarding its authenticity?

>In the Name of Allah, Who with His Name nothing can cause harm in the earth nor in the heavens,
and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.
I was wondering why you have to recite it 3 times in the morning and 3 times in the evening. Will there be a conflict of interest when you recite others dua that promise the same at the same time in the day? It has been widely regarded as an authentic hadith by the sources I have mentioned above.
Thank you highly in advance.

Which Ahadith and references from the scholars could be provided to answer this question?
- I will post an answer to this question
- Square brackets [ ] are additions or/and individual changes (for clarity) of the author's thread
-----------
Continuation of "the authentic, standard supplications (A'dyiah) and rememberances (Adhkar) after the Prayer ."
-----------
>The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "[...] *And He commands you to remember Allah. For indeed, the parable of that is a man whose enemy quickly tracks him until he reaches an impermeable fortress in which he protects himself from them. This is how the worshiper is; he does not protect himself from Ash-Shaytan except by the remembrance of Allah.*"
>
>At-Tirmidhi (2863 ) Abu I'sa graded Hasan Sahih Gharib
>Allah says in Surah Ar-Ra'd, Ayah 28 : "***Those who have believed and whose hearts are assured by the remembrance of Allah. Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah hearts are assured***"
----
Every Dhikr or Du'a should be uttered with the full Yaqin (certainty) and with full understanding of what is said (translation) so that you make use of them.

Assalamu aleykum, when breaking our fast we say this duaa : The thirst is gone, and the veins are moistened and the reward is certain InshaAllah. My question is, how do we interpret this since we say it right after we break the fast so our veins don't moisten immediately for instance. So is it more of a description of the process? Any answer would help. Jazakum Allahu khairan.

The next day, my health started deteriorating and in my dream/ I was told that this dua has been accepted and it cannot be changed.
It’s been 7 months and I don’t know what to do now.

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
I am a student preparing for an upcoming medical exam. I have been making duaa since Ramadan that I get a certain score in my medical exam that I knew it is extremely hard for me to get despite my efforts. I have recently changed my duaa to get a perfect score in the exam. This score I knew is IMPOSSIBLE for me to get regardless of my work. So, is it permissible to ask Allah of such duaa or not? I also alhamdulillah, all thanks to Allah I pray at masjid and I do my best in my worship and in my studying but the stimulation exams show results very far from the perfect score I am dreaming of

,
Am I able to pray earlier before all the men pray? They use it at its designated times and I know it isn’t permissible to pray earlier but in this situation I’m really not sure on what to do.
If I go in earlier before all of them and pray is this allowed?
Or should I pray my rakat at home for all the prayers I missed?
Please advise

Because God said call me and I will answer. Islam is confusing and don't tell me there's three ways of answering dua.

I don't know if this makes sense but: What if I desperately pray and say "*O Allah!*, please make sure that my laptop wasn't hacked at that time (in the past)". As Allah knows everything about our future including our *duas*, therefore, at that time in the past for which I am praying now, He knew that I will make a *dua*, right? Allah is capable of anything and everything.
So, can I make *dua* for the past?

After researching duas for better eyesight I’ve come across a few pages and videos claiming to recite Verse 22 of Surah Qaf then blowing it on your finger an rubing it on your eyes.
Somehow that doesn’t really sound authentic/ part of the sunnah to me, which is why it would be helpful if someone of knowledge would help me clarify this matter.

Are these ahadith regarding reciting "Allah is sufficient for me..." seven times authentic?
Assalamu alaikum. Recently I have seen the following excerpt which I'm copying here... > Hasbiyallaahu laa 'ilaaha 'illaa Huwa 'alayhi tawakkaltu wa Huwa Rabbul-'Arshil-'Adheem. > > Allah is sufficient for me. There is none worthy of worship but Him. I have placed my trust in Him, He is Lord of the...
Assalamu alaikum. Recently I have seen the following excerpt which I'm copying here...
> Hasbiyallaahu laa 'ilaaha 'illaa Huwa 'alayhi tawakkaltu wa Huwa Rabbul-'Arshil-'Adheem.
>
> Allah is sufficient for me. There is none worthy of worship but Him. I have placed my trust in Him, He is Lord of the Majestic Throne. (Recite seven times in Arabic.)
and
> Allah will grant whoever recites this seven times in the morning or evening whatever he desires from this world or the next, Ibn As-Sunni (no. 71), Abu Dawud 4/321. Both reports are attributed directly to the Prophet (Marfu1). The chain of transmission is sound (Sahih). Ibn As-Sunni."
My question is I have previously read about this Hadith where it states that it is fabricated. But now as I see the above mentioned excerpt in two different sites I am confused. Can anyone tell me which one is right?
I mean is it really fabricated or is there any level of authenticity in it?
Also please mention some authentic Dua for getting out of distresses and fulfillment of wishes.
