Yahya related to me from Malik from Da'ud ibn al-Husayn that Abu
Sufyan, the mawla of Ibn Abi Ahmad, said that he heard Abu Hurayra
say, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
prayed asr and said the taslim after two rakas. Dhu'l-Yadayn stood up
and said, 'Has the prayer been shortened, Messenger of Allah, or have
you forgotten?' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, stood up and completed what remained of the prayer, and
then, remaining sitting after saying the taslim, he made two
prostrations."

Sakhtayani from Muhammad ibn Sirin from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, finished the prayer
after two rakas and Dhu'l-Yadayn said to him, "Has the prayer been
shortened or have you forgotten, Messenger of Allah?" The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Has
Dhu'l-Yadayn spoken the truth?" The people said, "Yes," and the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, stood and
prayed the other two rakas and then said, "Peace be upon you." Then he
said, "Allah is greater" and went into a sadja as long as his usual
prostrations or longer. Then he came up and said, "Allah is greater"
and went into a sajda as long as his usual prostrations or longer and
then came up.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Abu Bakr ibn
Sulayman ibn Abi Hathma said, "I have heard that the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, prayed two rakas of
one of the two day-ti me prayers, dhuhr or asr, and said the taslim
after two rakas. Dhu'sh-Shamalayn said to him, 'Has the prayer been
shortened, Messenger of Allah, or have you forgotten?' The Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'The prayer
has not been shortened and I have not forgotten.' Dhu'shShamalayn
said, 'It was certainly one of those, Messenger of Allah.' The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
approached the people and said, 'Has Dh u'sh-Shamalayn spoken the
truth?' They said, 'Yes, Messenger of Allah,' and the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, completed what
remained of the prayer, and then said, 'Peace be upon you.' "
