Summary
The hadith is found in several collections, including al-Ṭabarānī's al-Du'ā, al-Hākim's al-Mustadrak and al-Baihaqī's al-Da'wāt al-Kabīr. All chains converge on Abd al-Razzāq, Bishr bin Rāfi', Muhammad bin 'Ajlān, his father and Abu Hurairah RA, and the report is weak because of Bishr bin Rafī'. The supporting chain through Mu'awiyah bin Haydah is also weak. In meaning, however, it is supported by authentic hadiths on the virtue of remembrance of Allah and of saying the hawqalah.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Ringkasnya, riwayat ini lemah disebabkan Bishr bin Rafī'.
