152. Al-Mughīrah bin Shu'bah narrated: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ trailed behind (the caravan)..." and he mentioned this story, until he said: "When we returned to the people, 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Awf was leading them in the morning (Fajr) prayer. When he saw the Prophet ﷺ, he started to retreat, but the Prophet ﷺ motioned to him to continue. He said: "So the Prophet ﷺ and I prayed one Rak'ah behind him. After he said the Taslīm, the Prophet ﷺ stood up to complete the Rak'ah that he had missed, and he did not add anything to that." (Da'if)
Abū Dāwūd said: Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī, Ibn Az-Zubair, and Ibn 'Umar all say that whoever catches an odd number (of Rak'ahs) of the prayer, he should perform the prostration of forgetfulness.

Commentary
Based upon this, and other Ahādīth, the majority of the scholars hold the view that only the missed Rak'ah or Rak'at are to be performed, and that no prostration of forgetfulness is to be performed in this case. See nos. 1008-1039.
As for his saying: "Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī, Ibn Az-Zubair, and Ibn 'Umar all say that whoever catches an odd number (of Rak'ahs) of the prayer, he should perform the prostration of forgetfulness." This was recorded by 'Abdur-Razzāq in his Muṣanaf, and Al-Mundhirī in Al-Awsaṭ from Ishāq bin Ibrāhīm from 'Abdur-Razzāq, similarly, there are a number of routes of transmission from Ibn 'Umar for that. In any case, the majority hold the view as stated previously.
