The answer

There is no with this exact wording, but it is authentically reported in Imam Ahmad's Musnad a hadith from Abu Dharr, from the Prophet, may Allah's prayers and peace be upon him, who said: "Indeed, Allah, the Most Mighty and Exalted, loves three and dislikes three. He dislikes the elderly adulterer, the arrogant poor person, and the wealthy miser. And He loves three: a man who was in a troop and charged, protecting them until he was killed or Allah granted victory; and a man who was among people who journeyed and then stopped at the end of the night, and sleep was dearer to them than anything else, so they slept, but he rose, reciting My verses and imploring Me; and a man who was among people, and a man came to them asking them by a kinship between him and them, but they withheld from him, and he followed in their footsteps and gave him where none saw him except Allah and the one he gave." And Muslim narrated from Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah's prayers and peace be upon him, said: "There are three whom Allah will not speak to on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them, nor will He look at them, and for them is a painful torment: an elderly adulterer, a lying king, and an arrogant pauper."
