How sound is the hadeeth, “Seek to draw closer to Allaah by virtue of my status”?

Question: 12692

What is the status of the hadeeth, “Seek to draw closer to Allaah by virtue of my status, for my status with Allaah is great”?

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

This hadeeth has no basis. 

Ibn Taymiyah and al-Albaani said: it has no basis. 

See Iqtidaa’ al-Siraat al-Mustaqeem by Ibn Taymiyah, 2/415; al-Silsilah al-Da’eefah, 22
