It is narrated from Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went out of his house, he would pray two rak'ahs before Zuhr and two rak'ahs before Asr. Once the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a collector (of zakah) to a certain people. When he reached them, some of them wanted to help him and began preparing for that; but when the collector saw those people (in that condition), he thought that they might kill him, so he turned back to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "They have refused to give me their charity." The collector had separated from those people, so they themselves came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to apologise, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) had already prayed the Zuhr prayer. They kept presenting their excuses to him (peace and blessings be upon him) until he (peace and blessings be upon him) also prayed the Asr prayer, and he forgot (to pray) the two rak'ahs that he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray before Asr, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed them after Asr. Then Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) sent a message to Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her): "O my dear sister! What are these two rak'ahs that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed in your room after Asr?" She informed her about it and said: "I never saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) pray them before this (incident) or after it."
