Not at all.

The KJV says: "...for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He rested, and was refreshed." (Ex.31:17)

The NIV says: "...for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He abstainedfrom work and rested." (same verse)

The point is that God "made" the "seven day weekly cycle, and made the seventh day "by resting." He sanctified the seventh day [set it apart from the other six days for His Holy purpose]... and that purpose was so that man would REMEMBER CREATION!

"REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY, to KEEP IT HOLY. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: but the seventh day is the Sabbath OF THE LORD THY GOD [not the Jews]: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord BLESSED the seventh day, and HALLOWED it" (Ex.20:8-11)

God rested on the seventh day to "establish the seven-day weekly cycle" as a reminder to man of his Creator... of "creation"... and that he was "created."

The world teaches "evolution" today [creation without a Creator]... because rebellious man has chosen not to "remember" God's BLESSED, HALLOWED and SANCTIFIED Sabbath day. Therefore, he has "forgotten" God's special creation.

God was not tired.

Allah or God is free from all human limits of power, seeing, hearing, knowledge, etc..

Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise, All-Knowing, The Creator. all Allah (God) creations is by the word "to be" than "it is".

In Islam, Allah created the universe in six days and never felt tired or need to take rest.

Quran says:

وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ وَمَا مَسَّنَا مِن لُّغُوبٍ ﴿٣٨﴾

Meaning English translation:

"And We did certainly create the heavens and earth and what is between them in six days, and there touched Us no weariness.(38)" [Quran, chapter 50, verse 38]

God rested on the 7th day, not because He was tired, but to inaugurate every 7th day, or Sabbath, to be commemorated by mankind as a memorial to creation.
