Ibn Jurayj narrates that when Ata (may Allah have mercy on him) missed the Isha prayer, he would come to the mosque while the people were standing in the night prayer, pray two rak'ahs with them and complete the prayer by praying two more rak'ahs. He saw him do this, and he counted it as the Isha prayer.
