عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ : فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ إِلَّا الْمَغْرِبَ ثَلَاثًا لِأَنَّهَا وِتْرٌ قَالَتْ : وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِذَا سَافَرَ صَلَّى الصَّلَاةَ الْأُولَى إِلَّا الْمَغْرِبَ وَإِذَا أَقَامَ زَادَ مَعَ كُلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، إِلَّا الْمَغْرِبَ لِأَنَّهَا وِتْرٌ ، وَالصُّبْحَ لِأَنَّهَا يُطَوِّلُ فِيهَا الْقِرَاءَةَ .
Sayyidah Aishah Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The prayer was made obligatory as two rak'ahs and two, except for the Maghrib prayer, which had three rak'ahs because it is odd. Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) travelled, he would offer the original prayer (i.e. two obligatory rak'ahs), except for the Maghrib prayer; and when he was resident, he would add two more rak'ahs to the two rak'ahs, except for the Maghrib prayer, because it is odd, and the morning (Fajr) prayer, because in it he would lengthen the recitation.

وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ : فُرِضَتِ الصَّلَاةُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِمَكَّةَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْمَدِينَةَ زَادَ مَعَ كُلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ .
رَوَاهُمَا أَحْمَدُ .
In one narration from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) it is reported that she said: In Makkah the prayer was made obligatory as two rak'ahs and two; when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to Madinah, two rak'ahs were added to every two rak'ahs. After that the narrator narrated the rest as before. Ahmad recorded both narrations.

وَعَنْ أَحْمَدَ عَنْهَا أَيْضًا قَالَتْ : كَانَ أَوَّلُ مَا افْتَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ إِلَّا الْمَغْرِبَ فَإِنَّهَا كَانَتْ ثَلَاثًا وَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ .
وَرِجَالُهَا كُلِّهَا ثِقَاتٌ .
Ahmad also recorded this narration from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her); she says: The first prayer that Allah Almighty made obligatory upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was two rak'ahs and two, except for the Maghrib prayer, which had three rak'ahs. After that the narrator mentioned the hadith as before. The narrators of all these narrations are thiqat (trustworthy).

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ : أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - فَرَضَ الصَّلَاةَ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّكُمْ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي الْحَضَرِ أَرْبَعًا وَفِي السَّفَرِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ .

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: O people! Indeed Allah Almighty has made obligatory, through the tongue of your Prophet, four rak'ahs when resident and two rak'ahs when travelling.
Ahmad recorded it; its chain mentions that Ubaydullah bin Zahr narrated it from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him). I have not found anyone who wrote his biography, and I have recorded this narration in this way from the Musnad after checking. The rest of its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Khalaf bin Hafs narrated about Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): We were taken to Abd al-Malik in al-Sham, and we were forty men from the Ansar; the purpose was that he should fix a stipend for us. When he returned and we were at Fajj al-Naqah, he led us in the Zuhr prayer with two rak'ahs, then he went into his tent. The people stood up and added two more rak'ahs to their two rak'ahs. So Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "May Allah Almighty make the faces of these people ugly! By Allah, they have neither followed the Sunnah nor accepted the concession. I bear witness that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: 'Some people will go to extremes in the religion, and they will pass out of the religion just as an arrow passes through the target.'"
Ahmad recorded it; I have not found anyone who wrote a biography of Khalaf bin Hafs.

When the time of prayer came, they said: "O Abu Abdullah! Go forward." Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi said: "We will neither lead you in prayer nor marry your women; indeed Allah Almighty has guided us through you." The narrator says: So a man from among them went forward and led four rak'ahs. When he gave salam, Sayyiduna Salman said: "What have we to do with four rak'ahs? Half of four would have sufficed us, for we are more in need of the concession." Abd al-Razzaq says: This means that it happened during a journey.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; the narrator Abu Layla al-Kindi was graded da'if (weak) by Yahya bin Ma'in.
