The question

What is the authenticity of the Hadith Qudsi: "By My might and My majesty, I do not seize My believing servant whom I desire to show mercy to except that I afflict him with every bad deed he committed, making it an illness in his body, or a scarcity in his provision, or a calamity in his wealth or his child, until I reduce him to the likeness of an atom. If anything remains, I intensify for him the pangs of death until he meets Me on the day his mother gave birth to him"?

The answer

The aforementioned Hadith is very weak, almost fabricated. Among the indications of its weak chain of transmission is Al-Dhahabi's statement in his biography of Amr ibn Bakr al-Sakasaki: "His narrations are almost fabricated."
