This Hadith is weak due to its irsal (missing link in the chain of narration), as it was narrated by Al-Darimi, Abu Dawud, Al-Bayhaqi, and others, from Ka'b Al-Ahbar as mursal (a narration in which a Successor transmits directly from the Prophet without mentioning the Companion). The Companion from whom Ka'b narrated this Hadith is not mentioned. Al-Albani declared it weak.
