1901. 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Bakrah narrated from his father who said: "The Messenger of Allāh
ﷺ said: 'Shall I not tell you of the biggest of the major sins?' They said: 'Of course! O Messenger of Allāh!' He said: 'To join partners with Allāh, and disobeying one's parents.'" He said: "He ﷺ sat up, and he had been reclining. He said: 'And false testimony, or false speech.' And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would not stop saying it until we said (to ourselves): 'I wish that he would stop.'" (Sahih)
[He said:] There is something about this from Abū Sa'eed.
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. Abū Bakrah's name is Nufai' [bin Al-Ĥarith].

Commentary
Just as the primary reason of man's creation is to obey his Master and Creator i.e., Allāh, (and of a surety, it is the greatest of all sins to ascribe partners to Him), the apparent cause of his birth in this world is his parents.
