Alikom Assalaam.
Most of the( Ahadeeth) which are narated about the month of (Rajab) ,eather very weak or fabricated,the only hadeeth which is sound (according to Imam Al Shawkany) is:Mujiba al-Bahiliyya about her father or her uncle, "He went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and then went to him again a year later when his circumstances and appearance had changed. He said, 'Messenger of Allah, do you not recognise me?' He said, 'Who are you?' He said, 'I am the Bahili who came to you last year.' He said, 'What has changed you? You had a handsome appearance.' He said, 'I have only eaten at night since I left you.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'You have tortured yourself!.' Then he said, 'Fast the month of endurance [Ramadan] and one day every month.' He said, 'Let me do more. I have strength.' He said, 'Fast two days.' He said, 'Let me do more.' He said, 'Fast three days.' He said, 'Let me do more.' He said, 'Fast in the sacred months and stop. Fast in the sacred months and stop. Fast in the sacred months and stop.' He spoke with three fingers, putting them together and then releasing them.'" [Abu Dawud]
So, since the month of Rajab is among the sacred months,it is recommended to fast during this month according to the last hadeeth I have mentioned,but there is no any authentic hadeeth about fasting on the 1st of rejab or on any days in Rajab....,as Imam Al shawkany said.
And Allah Knows Best.
