The answer

No hadith with this exact wording has been found. However, a hadith is narrated in the Musnad from Qabisah ibn al-Mukhariq that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said to him: "O Qabisah, you do not pass by a stone, a tree, or a clod of earth but that it seeks forgiveness for you. O Qabisah, when you pray Fajr, say three times: 'Glory be to Allah, the Most Great, and with His praise.' You will be cured from blindness, leprosy, and paralysis. O Qabisah, say: 'O Allah, I ask You from that which is with You, and pour forth upon me from Your bounty, and spread upon me Your mercy, and send down upon me Your blessings.'" Al-Haythami said: Ahmad narrated it, and it contains an unnamed man. Al-Tabarani narrated it with similar wording. Ibn al-Sunni narrated it from Ibn Abbas, adding at the end that whoever adheres to these on the Day of Resurrection, not abandoning them, will have four gates of Paradise opened for him. Al-Albani said: It is very weak.

Some of the dhikr mentioned in the hadith have great merit in authentic ahadith, such as: - "Subhan Allah wa bihamdih" (Glory be to Allah and with His praise): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever says 'Subhan Allah wa bihamdih' one hundred times in a day, his sins will be forgiven, even if they are like the foam of the sea." - "Subhan Allah al-Azim, Subhan Allah wa bihamdih" (Glory be to Allah, the Most Great; Glory be to Allah and with His praise): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Two words, light on the tongue, heavy on the scale, beloved to the Most Merciful: 'Subhan Allah al-Azim, Subhan Allah wa bihamdih.'" - "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah" (There is no might or power except with Allah): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to Abu Musa al-Ash'ari: "Shall I not tell you of a word from the treasures of Paradise, or he said of a treasure from the treasures of Paradise?" I said: "Yes." He said: "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah."
