Sunan an-Nasai 2395 (Book 22, Hadith 306) #17006
The Rewards of Fasting

SUMMARY: The Prophet encourages people to fast one day out of every ten, eight, or seven days in order to receive the reward for the other days.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin 'Amr said: 'Amr said: "I spoke to the Prophet and he said: 'Fast one day out of ten and you will have the reward of the other nine'. I said: 'I am able to do more than that'. He said: 'Fast one day out of eight and you will have the reward of the other eight'. I said: 'I am able to do more than that'. He said: 'Fast one day out of eight and you will have the reward of the other seven'. I said: 'I am able to do more than that'. 'Fast one day and not the next"'.
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَلاَءِ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ ذَكَرْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ الصَّوْمَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ صُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ عَشْرَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَوْمًا وَلَكَ أَجْرُ تِلْكَ التِّسْعَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ صُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ تِسْعَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَوْمًا وَلَكَ أَجْرُ تِلْكَ الثَّمَانِيَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ إِنِّي أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَصُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ ثَمَانِيَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَوْمًا وَلَكَ أَجْرُ تِلْكَ السَّبْعَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ إِنِّي أَقْوَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ حَتَّى قَالَ ‏"‏ صُمْ يَوْمًا وَأَفْطِرْ يَوْمًا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about fasting and its rewards. It was narrated by Abdullah bin Amr and Amr that they spoke to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ who encouraged them to fast one day out of every ten, eight, or seven days in order to receive the reward for the other days. This hadith teaches us that fasting is a great act of worship which can bring us closer to Allah SWT and earn us His rewards. It also shows us how generous Allah SWT is with His rewards; even if we are only able to fast one day out of every ten, He will still give us a reward for all nine! We should strive our best to increase our acts of worship so that we can gain more rewards from Allah SWT.
