Is there a Hadith Qudsi to the effect of: "Son of Adam, I created you for Myself and I created all things for you"?
Ibn Al-Qayyim and Al-Munawi related two hadiths qudsi: The first: "Son of Adam, I created you for Myself, and I created everything for you. So by My right upon you, do not busy yourself with what I created for you over what I created you for." The second: "Son of Adam, I created you for Myself, so do not play. And I have taken responsibility for your sustenance, so do not tire yourself. Son of Adam, seek Me and you will find Me. If you find Me, you have found everything. And if you miss Me, you have missed everything. And I am more beloved to you than everything." No chain of transmission for these hadiths has been found back to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and it is likely that they are from the Isra'iliyyat (narrations of Jewish or Christian origin).
