What is the authenticity of this hadith (Cleanliness is part of faith), or is it an athar?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : I am asking about this hadith: is it a hadith:
Purity is part of faith النظافة من الإيمان
or an athar? Please guide us on this, may Allah reward you.

The Shaykh : I do not know whether this hadith is a marfu' hadith, an athar, or the words of some scholars.
However, there is no doubt that Islam calls for cleanliness, and for this reason the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The fitrah (innate natural disposition) consists of five things, or he said: five things are part of the fitrah: circumcision, shaving the pubic hair, trimming the mustache, plucking the armpit hair, and cutting the fingernails. الفطرة خمس أو قال خمس من الفطرة : الختان والاستحداد وقص شارب ونتف الآباط وتقليم الأظفار
.
And he commanded bathing every week, every Friday, to the extent that he (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) made it obligatory, saying (peace and blessings be upon him and his family):
Taking a bath (before coming to Friday prayers) is obligatory on every adult. غسل الجمعة واجب على كل محتلم
Riyad as-Salihin 1152
.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.
