The answer

The aforementioned hadith was narrated by Imam Ahmad from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever deliberately fabricates a dream, let him take his seat in Hellfire." Shu'ayb al-Arna'ut said about this hadith: "Hasan li ghairihi" (good due to external corroboration), and its chain of narration is weak due to the weakness of Abd al-A'la al-Tha'labi.
