أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَی وَإِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ أَشْعَثَ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَکْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّی بِالْقَوْمِ فِي الْخَوْفِ رَکْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ صَلَّی بِالْقَوْمِ الْآخَرِينَ رَکْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ فَصَلَّی النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْبَعًا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1556
It was narrated from Abu Bakrah that the Messenger of Allah led the people in offering the fear prayer, two Rak’ahs. Then he said the Taslimand led others in offering the fear prayer, then he said the Taslim. So the Prophet had prayed four Rak’ahs. (Sahih)
