Musnad Ahmad 20497

Translation

✧ The Prophet ﷺ led us in the prayer of fear. He prayed two rakʿahs with one group of his companions, then he said the salutation. They withdrew, and the others came and took their place, and he prayed two rakʿahs with them and then said the salutation. Thus the Prophet ﷺ had four rakʿahs, and the people had two rakʿahs each.
