What is status of following narration?
خمس من العبادة قلة الطعم والقعود في المساجد والنظر إلى الكعبة والنظر في المصحف من غير أن يقرأه والنظر في وجه العالم
Answer
This narration is recorded in Musnadul Firdaws.
(Musnadul Firdaws, Hadith: 2969, ‘ilmiyyah edition)
However, the chain consists of an extremely weak narrator.
(Refer: Al ‘Ilalul Mutanahiyah, vol. 2 pg. 828/829, Hadith: 1386, Faydul Qadir, Hadith: 3966)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
