What is the authenticity of the mentioned hadiths that include: 1. "O My servant! You are with Me like some of My angels" (Hadith Qudsi). 2. The story of the angel who asked for a long life, wings, and strength to circumambulate the Throne, then realized the insignificance of his deeds compared to the kingdom of Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq in Paradise (narrated by Al-Tirmidhi). 3. "Whoever perfectly memorizes the Qur’an and acts upon it, there is nothing between him and prophethood except that he be inspired" (narrated from the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him). 4. "Work for Allah according to your need for Him, and for the world according to your stay in it, and for the Hereafter according to your remaining in it, and for the Fire according to your endurance of it."
The Hadith "O My servant! You are with Me like some of My angels" was narrated with the wording "Indeed, Allah boasts to the angels about the worshipping youth..." and it is a fabricated Hadith. The second Hadith, "which you claimed was narrated by Tirmidhi," has no existence in the books of Sunnah, nor in books of weak or fabricated Hadiths, and it is clearly a lie. The third Hadith, "Whoever reads the Quran has surely acquired prophethood..." was narrated with this wording by Al-Hakim, who authenticated it, but Al-Albani weakened its chain of narration, and it contains Isma'il ibn Rafi', who is abandoned (in narration). The last Hadith, "Work for Allah according to..." has no existence in the books of Sunnah, nor in books of weak or fabricated Hadiths.
