What is the تخريج (source and authentication) of this hadith, and is it authentic or fabricated: "Allah Almighty says: 'Indeed, I find myself ashamed of My servant who raises his hands and says, "O Lord, O Lord!" and I turn them back empty.' Then the angels say, 'He is not worthy of being forgiven.' So I say, 'But I am worthy of piety and worthy of forgiveness. Bear witness that I have forgiven My servant!'" And what about the hadiths that follow it?

The first , parts of which were narrated by Al-Hakim Al-Tirmidhi and Al-Daylami from Anas, and parts of which, or something similar, are found in Al-Ghazali's Ihya' Ulum al-Din, are books that are likely to contain weak hadith.
As for the hadith about Adam's disobedience, we have not found anyone who narrated it. Ibn Al-Qayyim mentioned it in Madarij al-Salikin and attributed it to the "tongue of circumstance" (lisan al-hal). If it were a hadith, Ibn Al-Qayyim would have attributed it to hadith.
