Scholarly Critique

Scholar: al-Albani
Critique Type: Literal matn addition (shadhdh — lone addition by Abu Shihab)
Scholar Grading: Weakened by al-Albani (specific word 'iyanan' only)

Al-Albani in Zilal al-Janna p.201 #461: 'the soul is not at ease with the authenticity of this word iyanan because Abu Shihab alone adds it; it is munkar or at least shadhdh.' The tradition of seeing God is sahih via many routes — only this specific word is disputed.

Final Assessment and Source

Final Grade: Hasan at most (per al-Albani) / Sahih (per majority)
Source: s-oman.net; al-Albani, Zilal al-Janna p.201 #461
