1281. 'Abdullāh Al-Muzanī narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Pray two Rak'ahs before Maghrib, pray two Rak'ahs before Maghrib — whoever wishes to do so," for fear that people might take this as a regular practice. (Sahih)

Arabic text

1281 - حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ الْمُعَلِّمِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «صَلُّوا قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «صَلُّوا قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ لِمَنْ شَاءَ»، خَشْيَةَ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَهَا النَّاسُ سُنَّةً
