حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَرْجِسَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَی رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي الرَّکْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمَّا صَلَّی قَالَ لَهُ بِأَيِّ صَلَاتَيْکَ اعْتَدَدْتَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1152
It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin Sarjis that the Messenger of Allah SAW saw a man performing the two Rak'ah belore the morning prayer while he himself was performing prayer. When he had finished praying he said to him: "Which of your two prayers did you intend to be counted (i.e. accepted)?" (Sahih).
