436. 'Abdullāh bin Shaqīq said: "I asked 'Āishah about the Ṣalāt of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. She said: 'He would pray four Rak'ah before Az-Zuhr and two Rak'ah after it, and two after Al-Maghrib, and two Rak'ah after Al-'Ishā', and two before Al-Fajr.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from 'Alī and Ibn 'Umar. Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of 'Abdullāh bin Shaqīq from 'Āishah is a Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ Hadīth.

٤٣٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو سَلَمَةَ يَحْيَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ ، عَنْ ‌خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ، قَالَ: «سَأَلْتُ» ‌عَائِشَةَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَقَالَتْ: كَانَ يُصَلِّي قَبْلَ الظُّهْرِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَبَعْدَهَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَبَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ ثِنْتَيْنِ، وَبَعْدَ الْعِشَاءِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَقَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ ثِنْتَيْنِ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ. حَدِيثُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

These are regular or stressed Sunnah. Four Rak'ah after Zuhr are also mentioned in some narrations; and in most narrations four Rak'ah before Zuhr are mentioned. Unstressed Sunnah are also prior to Asr, Maghrib and Ishā' prayers. Four before Asr, two before Maghrib, and there is no specific Ishā' prayer, and as for after Ishā', there is mention of four and six Rak'ah. [Nailul-Awṭār: 3/20]
