2256. It was narrated from ‘Uqbah bin ‘Āmir that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: “Whoever fasts one day in the cause of Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, Allâh will separate him the distance of one hundred years from the Fire.” (Hasan)

Arabic text

2254 - أَخْبَرَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «مَنْ صَامَ يَوْمًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بَاعَدَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ جَهَنَّمَ مَسِيرَةَ مِائَةِ عَامٍ»

Commentary

“A hundred years”: in all the previous narrations, there is mention of “seventy years”. It seems that both of these figures are not indicative of any particular fixed number. Rather it denotes numerousness or plenty of it.
