أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الظُّهْرَ أَوْ الْعَصْرَ ، فَسَلَّمَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ ، فَخَرَجَ سَرَعَانُ النَّاسِ ، فَقَالُوا : خُفِّفَتْ الصَّلَاةُ ، فَقَالَ ذُو الشِّمَالَيْنِ : أَخُفِّفَتْ الصَّلَاةُ أَمْ نَسِيتَ ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :
" مَا يَقُولُ ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ ؟ " قَالُوا : صَدَقَ . فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ اللَّتَيْنِ تَرَكَ ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ ، بَعْدَ مَا سَلَّمَ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the Zuhr or Asr prayer and ended the prayer after only two rak'ahs. At this, the hasty people left and began to say that the number of rak'ahs in the prayer had been reduced. Meanwhile, Dhul-Yadain bin Abd Amr, who was an ally of Banu Zuhrah, submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! Did you forget or has the number of rak'ahs in the prayer been reduced?" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the companions (may Allah be pleased with them), "Is it as Dhul-Yadain is saying?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) confirmed it. Upon this, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the two rak'ahs that had been left out, then after saying salam, while sitting, performed two prostrations of forgetfulness (sajda sahw).
