1163. 'Ali bin Zaid bin Jud'ân said:
"I heard Anas bin Mâlik say: 'The Mu'adh-dhin would call the Adhân during the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, and one would think that it was the Iqâmah because there were so many people who stood and performed the two Rak'ah before the Maghrib.'" (Sahih)

Commentary
It was the regular practice of the Companions to offer two Rak'ah before the Iqamâh for the Maghrib.
After the Iqamâh, all the Companions used to stand up, as they should have, to perform the prayer in congregation. Not only this, even for offering the two Rak'ah before the Maghrib, the Companions, all of them, stood in like manner.
