Abu Bakr bin Sulaiman bin Abi Hathmah narrated that: It was conveyed to him that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) prayed two rak'ahs, and Dhul-Shimalain said something similar to him. (One of the narrators Ibn Shihab said: "Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab informed me of this hadith from Abu Hurairah." He said: "And Abu Salamah bin 'Abdur Rahman, Abu Bakr bin 'Abdur Rahman, abu Bakr bin 'Abdur Rahman bin Al-Harith and 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah informed me."

Abu Bakr bin Sulaiman bin Abi Hathmah narrates that it reached him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led two rak‘ahs in prayer, so Dhu’l-Yadayn said to him..., and the hadith continues in this manner. Ibn Shihab Zuhri says that this information was conveyed to me by Sa‘id bin al-Musayyib through Abu Hurairah. He (Zuhri) says: I was also informed of this by Abu Salamah bin ‘Abd al-Rahman, Abu Bakr bin ‘Abd al-Rahman bin Harith, and ‘Ubayd al-Rahman bin ‘Abdullah.
