This is very weak through all its chains of transmission, it cannot be used as a proof, and it is impermissible to attribute it to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Moreover, the preponderant opinion is that a weak hadith should not be acted upon or used in worship, neither for the virtues of deeds nor for anything else, especially if its weakness is severe.
