A narration explaining a huge reward for Sa’i, walking between Safa and Marwah

Is this narration reliable?

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“Whoever makes wudu properly and then walks between Safa and Marwah, will receive 70 000 rewards for each step”

Answer:

Imam Daylami (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration on the authority of Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr.

(Musnadul Firdaws, Hadith: 5622)

However, ‘Allamah Suyuti (rahimahullah) has pointed out a liar in the chain of narrators. The Hadith is not suitable to quote.

(Dhaylul La-Alil Masnu’ah, vol. 1 pg. 476, Hadith: 576 and Tanzihush Shari’ah, vol. 2 pg. 175)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
