Question:
A questioner sent a paper that has circulated, containing this qudsi hadith: “O son of Adam, do not fear one who holds authority, as long as My authority and My kingship do not cease; do not fear the loss of provision, as long as My treasuries are full and do not run out; I created all things for your sake, and I created you for My sake,” and so on. He asks: Is this qudsi hadith authentic?

Answer:
It has not been traced to any specific source. If it is not traced to a source, it is considered part of your own words. The narrators must be provided; it must have a chain of transmission. It is not permissible to publish something like this, nor is it permissible to distribute it to people unless its source, its tracing, and its chain of transmission are published, so that it is known whether it is authentic or not. As for a mere hadith like this, without a chain, and without mentioning the narrator or the book from which it was taken, this is not permissible to distribute. Yes.
