Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

There is no Sunnah or Nafl fast for the month of Rajab specifically.

However, it is advisable to fast on Mondays and Thursdays. It is also advisable to fast on the 13, 14 and 15 of every lunar month.

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
