Takhrij of Hadith: Ya Abu Bakr! No one knows my reality except my Lord

Question:

Asalamu alaikum
Please let me know the grading and takhrij of the following hadith..?
Prophet (pbuh) says to Syeduna Abu Bakr as-Siddique: Ya Abu Bakr, no one knows my reality (haqiqa) except my Lord.

Thank you…

Answer:

Alaykum Salam,

This is not a hadith but more akin to a poetic paraphrase, verbalizingĀ the Prophetic rank and his intimacy with Abu Bakr — as Rumi often didĀ for example — and Allah knows best.
