3612. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Ask Allāh to grant me Al-Wasīlah.” They said: “O Messenger of Allāh! And what is Al-Wasīlah?" He said: "The highest level of Paradise. No one will attain it except for one man, and I hope that I am him." (Sahīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] The chain for this Hadīth is Gharīb, and it is not strong. Ka'b is not well-known, and we do not know that anyone narrated from him except for Laith bin Abī Sulaim.
٣٦١٢ - حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، وَهُوَ الثَّوْرِيُّ عَنْ لَيْثٍ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي كَعْبٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «سَلُوا اللهَ لِيَ الْوَسِيلَةَ». قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَا الْوَسِيلَةُ؟ قَالَ: أَعْلَى دَرَجَةٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، لَا يَنَالُهَا إِلَّا رَجُلٌ وَاحِدٌ أَرْجُو أَنْ أَكُونَ أَنَا هُوَ .. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ لَيْسَ بِالْقَوِيِّ، وَكَعْبٌ لَيْسَ هُوَ بِمَعْرُوفٍ، وَلَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا رَوَى عَنْهُ غَيْرَ لَيْثِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ.

Al-Wasīlah is a special place and status of Allāh's favors and affection. This is a high status in Paradise which will be given only to one person. This is also known as 'Al-Faḍīlah' and 'Lofty Station' in Paradise. He who is given this place and status will be the most honored person. Allāh ﷻ has promised to bestow this place and status to the Prophet ﷺ so we have the right to beg for this place and status for the Prophet ﷺ.
