1153. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin Mâlik bin Buhainah said: "The Prophet ﷺ passed by a man who was praying when the Iqâmah for Subh prayer had been called, and he said something to him, I do not know what he said. When he finished, we surrounded the man and asked him: 'What did the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say to you?' He said: 'He said to me: "Soon one of you will pray Fajr with four Rak'ah.'" (Sahih)
1153 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ بُحَيْنَةَ، قَالَ: مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِرَجُلٍ وَقَدْ أُقِيمَتْ صَلَاةُ الصُّبْحِ، وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي، فَكَلَّمَهُ بِشَيْءٍ لَا أَدْرِي مَا هُوَ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ أَحَطْنَا بِهِ نَقُولُ لَهُ: مَاذَا قَالَ لَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي: «يُوشِكُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ الْفَجْرَ أَرْبَعًا» بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِيمَنْ فَاتَتْهُ الرَّكْعَتَانِ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ مَتَى يَقْضِيهِمَا

This was the Prophet's way of politely making him desist from what he was doing. What the Prophet (ﷺ) meant was this: "There is only the obligatory prayer after the Iqâmah. Through your action you seem to have added two Rak'ah of Sunnah as well to the two obligatory Rak'ah of Fajr, thus making them four."
