1542. It was narrated that ‘Abdullâh bin ‘Umar said: “The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ offered the fear prayer. He stood and said the Takbîr, and a group of us prayed behind him while another group was facing the enemy. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ bowed once and prostrated twice with them, then they moved away but did not say the Taslîm. They went to face the enemy and lined up in their places, and the other group came and formed a row behind the
Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and he led them in praying, bowing once and prostrating twice. Then the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said the Taslim and he had bowed twice and prostrated four times. Then the two groups stood up and each man prayed by himself, bowing once and prostrating twice.”
Abū Bakr Ibn As-Sunnī said:[1] “Az-Zuhrī heard two Hadīths from Ibn ‘Umar, and he did not hear this from him.” (Sahīh)

Commentary
This is the view of Ibn Sunnī. ‘Alī bin Al-Madīnī also has made a similar statement. But according to Imām Ahmad bin Hanbal and Yahya bin Ma’in, Az-Zuhrī heard no report at all from ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Umar. In these reports also there is mention of the link of Sālim. And Allāh knows best!
