Looking for reference of this hadith

[Ali_008]

:sl:
I have heard this hadeeth earlier as well, but this time I noticed that its reference is not mentioned. Can someone look it up and clarify its authenticity?

the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Most of the hypocrites of my ummah are among those who have memorized Qur’aan.”

This hadith is mentioned in Silsilah al-Ahaadeeth as-Saheehah by Shaikh Al-Albani. The author being a master of the sciences of hadeeth, I don't expect him to quote a weak hadeeth. However, does anyone have any idea about where it is mentioned and how authentic this is?

JazakAllah Khair

According to some sources, that hadith mentioned in Hadith Riwayah Ahmad. Its Sanad is Hasan.

The hadith itself is about people who memorize Qur'an not for the sake of Allah, but for wordly purpose.
