Sayyidina Buraydah Aslami narrated: The Prophet (SAW) heard a man make a supplication, saying:
O Allah, I ask You by virtne of my testimony that You, indeed You are Allah. There is no God besides You Who are The One, The Independent Who does not beget nor was begotten, and there is none co-equal with Him.
He said, By Him Who has my soul in His hand, he has, indeed, asked Allah by virtue of His is azam (great name) by which if He is called, He replies and if He is asked by it, gives.”
Zayd said that he mentioned this hadith to Zuhayr ibn Mu’awiyah after many years and he confirmed that Abu Ishaq had narrated it to him on the authority of Maalik ibn Mighwal. Then Zavd mentioned it to sufyan and he narrated it from Maalik.
