أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلَمْ يَدْرِ ثَلَاثًا صَلَّى أَمْ أَرْبَعًا فَلْيُصَلِّ رَكْعَةً وَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ السَّلَامِ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ رَابِعَةً فَالسَّجْدَتَانِ تَرْغِيمًا لِلشَّيْطَانِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ خَامِسَةً شَفَعَتْهَا السَّجْدَتَانِ»

✧ When one of you prays and does not know whether he prayed three or four (rak'ahs), let him pray one rak'ah and prostrate two prostrations before the salutation. If it was the fourth, the two prostrations are a humiliation for Satan; and if it was the fifth, the two prostrations make it even.
