Yasar, who was the freed slave of Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them), says: Once Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) saw me praying after the rising of dawn, so he said: O Yasar! How many rak‘ahs did you pray? I replied that I do not remember. He said: May you not remember. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also once came at this time and we were praying in the same way, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Let those present convey this message to those who are absent, that after the rising of dawn, there is no prayer except two rak‘ahs."
