وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَشْعَثِ، ثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ، حَدَّثَتْنَا شَعْثَاءُ، قَالَتْ:
رَأَيْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى ؓ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ امْرَأَتُهُ: مَا صَلَّيْتَ إِلَّا رَكْعَتَيْنِ ! قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَّى الضُّحَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ حِينَ بُشِّرَ بِالْفَتْحِ وَبِرَأْسِ أَبِي جَهْلٍ
