Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Abu Ishaq says that I met Hazrat Abdullah bin Ma’qil in Mada’in and I asked him, “I am the imam of my people and I want to return to my home. How many rak’ahs should I lead in prayer?” He replied, “Four.” Later, I met him in Rayy and I said, “I am the imam of my people and I want to return to my home. How many rak’ahs do you instruct me to pray?” He replied, “Two.”
