Is the Hadith: "If you lay on your side on the bed and recite Fatihat al-Kitab and Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad, you will be safe from everything except death" authentic (sahih), fabricated (mawdu’), or weak (da‘if)?

The aforementioned Hadith is weak due to the weakness of one of its narrators, Ghassan ibn Ubayd. However, it may reach the level of hasan (good) due to Ibn Hibban's authentication of him.
