The Holy Prophet (S.A.W.W.) said that the month of Rajab is of great importance. No other month has such a great significance. Rajab is the month of Allah, while Shabaan is mine and the month of Ramadhan is of my Ummat. If anyone fasts a single day in this month (Rajab) he will be nearer to Almighty Allah and will be safe from His wrath. And one door of the Hell will be closed for him.
Our 7th Imam Hazrat Musa Kazim (A.S.) said that if anyone keeps a fast in the month of Rajab, then the distance of travelling of one year of Hell fire will be made less for him. One who fasts for three days, Paradise will be made compulsory for him. In another tradition it is mentioned: Rajab is the name of a stream in Paradise, which is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey, and whosoever fasts for a day in this month, he will drink from this stream. The Holy Prophet of Islam (S.A.W.W.) said that the month of Rajab is for seeking forgiveness from Allah, so ask for the forgiveness from Almighty Allah, because He is the Most Merciful and most Beneficent.
Rajab is also called asabb, because in this month too much Mercy of Allah is poured upon the Ummah.
