Al-Dhahabi and Ibn Hajar al-Haytami mentioned the in Kitab al-Kaba'ir (The Book of Major Sins) without attribution or chain of narration, and it has not been found elsewhere. The author of Uyun Akhbar al-Ridha attributed it with a chain containing several unknown narrators. The Permanent Committee for Issuing Fatwas has published a cautionary statement clarifying that it is a fabricated hadith, falsely attributed to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. Several contemporary scholars have also deemed it fabricated.
