My Servant, Obey Me

My Servant, Obey Me


Question :

I heard some people mention a Qudsi Hadith, the wording of which is, "My servant, obey Me, and you will become a divine servant one who says to something, 'be,' and then it is." Is this Qudsi Hadith authentic?


Answer:

We found no such Hadith in the books of Sunnah, and even its meaning points to it being fabricated because it gives the status of the All-Powerful Creator to the created and weak creature, or at least, it makes that weak creature a partner with the Creator. And far above Allâh is from having a partner in His dominion, and therefore the belief that is implied by this saying is disbelief, for it is only Allah Almighty who can say to something "Be" and it is. Allah Almighty says:
"Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, "Be!" and it is!"

And with Allâh is the facilitation to do what is right. May Allah send peace and blessings upon Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
