حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ حَدَّثَنَا مَسَرَّةُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي كَبْشَةَعَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ قَالَ
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنِّي صَلَّيْتُ، فَلَمْ أَدْرِ أَشَفَعْتُ، أَمْ أَوْتَرْتُ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِيَّايَ، وَأَنْ يَتَلَعَّبَ بِكُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ، مَنْ صَلَّى مِنْكُمْ فَلَمْ يَدْرِ أَشَفَعَ أَوْ أَوْتَرَ فَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ فَإِنَّهُمَا تَمَامُ صَلَاتِهِ.

✧ A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: O Messenger of Allah, I prayed but I do not know whether I prayed an even or odd number. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Beware lest Satan toys with you in your prayer. Whoever of you prays and does not know whether he prayed an even or odd number, let him prostrate twice, for they complete his prayer.
