A fabricated narration on the reward of opening the fast with a halal date

Is this narration authentic?

من أفطر على تمرة من حلال زيد في صلاته أربعمائة صلاة

Answer:

Imam Ibn ‘Adiy (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration with variation in the wording. However, the Muhaddithun have declared the Hadith a fabrication.

The Hadith is not suitable to quote.

(Al Kamil, vol. 9 pg. 556, Tanzihush Shari’ah, vol. 2 pg. 147)

Translation

Whoever opens his fast with a halal date, his Salah will yield the reward of four hundred (400) Salah.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
