See the footnote.

This was translated elsewhere as:

Hazrat `Allamah ibn `Abidin [rh] on the footnote of his internationally


renowned book Raddul Muhtarul Ma'roof says that Ziyadi has
reported that if any person loses any one of his belongings and he
wishes for Almighty Allah to return it to him, he should stand on a
high place facing the Qibla and make Fatiha and send the reward to
the Holy Prophet [sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam] and to Sayyid Ahmad
bin Alwan [rh] and say,

ْ ‫عل ََّى َضال َّ ِت ْى َواِال ّ َ ن َ َز‬


‫عتُ َك‬ َ َ‫ان اِ ْن تَ ُر ّد‬ َ ‫اس ِيّ ِد ْىا َ ْح َم ُد يَابْ َن‬
َ ‫عل َْو‬ َ َ‫ي‬

‫لى‬
َ ‫ع‬َ ‫الى يَ ُر ُّد‬ َ ‫ان اْال َْو ِليآ ِء َفاِ ّ َن‬
َ ‫الله تَ َع‬ ِ ‫ِم ْن ِديْ َو‬

“O my leader Ahmad! O son of Alwan! If you do not return my lost


item, then it is fine, otherwise I will remove your name from the
register of the Awliyah

َ َ‫َال ذَالِ َك َضالَّتَه‘ بِبَ ْرك َ ِت ِه ا ُ ُج ْو ِر ْى َم َع ِزي‬


‫اد ٍة‬ َ ‫َم ْن ق‬

With the Barkah of this amal and that Wali Allah, the lost thing will
be returned.”

[Rad al Muhtar ala Dur al-Mukhtar Pg.334 Vol.3]

Insha'Allah a better translation will follow.

salamu alaykum,

akhi faqir, is that footnote even from ibn Abidin rahimuallah? Where
footnotes even used back in his time? I asked an arabic speaking
brother to check his ebook edition for that quote and he did not find
it in there. Maybe the footnote is from the publisher or something
like that...
Whatever the case, it should be checked properly before we "use"
it.

It is found in the following printed editions:

dar kotob al-ilmiyyah, vol.6/pg.447


bulaq edition, vol.3/pg.324
dar al-fikr edition, vol.4/pg.475

I therefore think it unlikely that a publisher has added it.

Allah knows best.

True. That then is a beautiful finding. I wonder what the deobandis
have to say regarding ibn abidin after that.
