The question

What is the authenticity of the hadith: "O Most Loving, O Most Loving, O Lord of the Glorious Throne, O Originator, O Restorer, O Doer of whatsoever He wills, I ask You by the light of Your Countenance which has filled the corners of Your Throne, and I ask You by Your power with which You have power over all Your creation, and I ask You by Your mercy which encompasses everything, there is no god but You, O Helper, help me, O Helper, help me, O Helper, help me"? And is it permissible to supplicate with it if it is inauthentic or fabricated, and is "Al-Mugheeth" (The Helper/Giver of Aid) among the Most Beautiful Names of Allah?

The answer

The wording of the supplication does not contain anything that violates the , so there is no harm in supplicating with it as a general supplication. "Al-Mughith" (The Giver of Aid) is one of Allah's Beautiful Names that it is permissible to supplicate with, and scholars have agreed upon this.
