To what extent is the authenticity of the Hadith: "O My servants, I did not create you to increase Myself through you from scarcity, or to seek intimacy with you from loneliness"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The aforementioned hadith was not found, but its meaning is correct; for Allah created humans and jinn to worship Him alone, and He created the heavens and the earth for His servants to know Him and to realize His power and the comprehensiveness of His knowledge over all things. Thus, creation was not in vain, but for worship.
