English translation

1556. It was narrated from Abû Bakrah that the Prophet ﷺ offered the fear prayer with those who were behind him, praying two Rak'ahs (with them) and two Rak'ahs with those who came after them, so the Prophet ﷺ prayed four Rak'ahs and the others each prayed two Rak'ahs. (Sahih)

Arabic text

1555 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَشْعَثُ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ «صَلَّى صَلَاةَ الْخَوْفِ بِالَّذِينَ خَلْفَهُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَالَّذِينَ جَاءُوا بَعْدُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، فَكَانَتْ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْبَعُ رَكَعَاتٍ، وَلِهَؤُلَاءِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»

Commentary

In these narrations, there is no mention of conducting salutation after the first Rak'ah, while in Ahâdith 1552 and 1553, there is mention of separate salutations, and those narrations are also transmitted by these very personages. Therefore, here too the salutation would be deemed after every two units. Even so, the Prophet's ﷺ four units of prayer were with two salutations.
