What is the reference of this Hadith?

These words are recorded in Sunan Nasai on the authority of Sayyidah Ummu Habibah (radiyallahu ‘anha).
(Sunan Nasai; Al Mujtaba, Hadith: 1814)
Imam Tirmidhi (rahimahullah) has recorded the Hadith with very slight variation in the wording.
(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 427)

Whomsoever offers four rak’ahs before Zuhr and four rak’ahs after Zuhr, Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla will forbid him from the Fire [i.e. Allah will protect him from Jahannam].
