Question
Is this a Hadith?
مَنْ جَدَّ وَجَدَ
Whoever strives/makes an effort will surely find [results]
Answer
Mulla ‘Ali Al Qari (rahimahullah) has declared this narration baseless. It is therefore not suitable to quote as a Hadith, although its an accepted reality.
(Al Asrarul Marfu’ah, Hadith: 480, Al Masnu’, Hadith: 244)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
