God, ever mighty and majestic is He, says: “O child of Adam, Icreated you of
dust, then of sperm, and your creation cost Me no effort. So how then should it cost Me to provide you with
bread at any moment?”
This tradition which I have transmitted goes back to Ka¡b al-A¢bår and appears in the collection of al-Raba¡¨, who says it is
found in the Torah.[1]
