1758. It was narrated from ‘Āishah that the Prophet ﷺ would not omit four Rak'ahs before Zuhr and two Rak'ahs before Fajr. (Sahīh) In general, the companions of Shu'bah who reported this Hadīth contradicted him;[1] they did not mention Masruq in it.
1757 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، «أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ لَا يَدَعُ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ قَبْلَ الظُّهْرِ وَرَكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ»، «خَالَفَهُ عَامَّةُ أَصْحَابِ شُعْبَةَ مِمَّنْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فَلَمْ يَذْكُرُوا مَسْرُوقًا»

[1] That is, ‘Uthmān bin ‘Umar who reported this from him.
It was the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ to offer four Rak'ahs before the Zuhr prayer. In some narrations, there is mention of two Rak'ahs. This explanation is for permissibility. And Allâh Knows best!
