From the magnificent book ?Silsilah al-Ahaadeeth as-Saheehah wa shai min fiqhihaa was fawaaidihaa? by the Noble Imaam, the Mujaddid, the Mujaahid, the Muhaddith Abu Abdur Rahmaan Muhammad Naasir ud-Deen al-Albaanee (rahimahullaah).
Hadeeth No. 2565, Page 138
Fasting one day in the Path of Allaah.
quote:
?Whoever fasts one day in the Path of Allaah, then Allaah will distance the Hellfire away from him by one hundred years.?
Reported by an-Nasaaee (2/318) and Ibn Abi Aasim in ?al-Jihaad? (no. 1/88/2) and at-Tabaraanee in ?al-Kabeer? (17/335, no.927) from Yahyaa bin al-Haarith from Qaasim from Uqbah bin Aamir that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahualaihi wasallam) said, ??the hadeeth??
I say; this chain is good and its narrators are all trustworthy. And regarding Qaasim who is Ibn Abdur Rahmaan the companion of Abu Umaamah, there are some comments which do not cause the hadeeth to fall below the level of hasan.
And the hadeeth has many other supporting chains which the Shaikh then mentions.
