Sahih (authentic)by the collection

حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِحْدَى صَلاَتَىِ الْعَشِيِّ ـ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ وَأَكْثَرُ ظَنِّي الْعَصْرَ ـ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَى خَشَبَةٍ فِي مُقَدَّمِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهَا وَفِيهِمْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ فَهَابَا أَنْ يُكَلِّمَاهُ وَخَرَجَ سَرَعَانُ النَّاسِ فَقَالُوا أَقَصُرَتِ الصَّلاَةُ وَرَجُلٌ يَدْعُوهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ذُو الْيَدَيْنِ فَقَالَ أَنَسِيتَ أَمْ قَصُرَتْ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ لَمْ أَنْسَ وَلَمْ تُقْصَرْ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ بَلَى قَدْ نَسِيتَ‏.‏ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ فَسَجَدَ مِثْلَ سُجُودِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَكَبَّرَ، ثُمَّ وَضَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَكَبَّرَ فَسَجَدَ مِثْلَ سُجُودِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ وَكَبَّرَ‏.‏

Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (ﷺ) offered one of the evening prayers (the sub-narrator Muhammad said, "I think that it was most probably the `Asr prayer") and he finished it after offering two rak`at only. He then stood near a piece of wood in front of the Mosque and put his hand over it. Abu Bakr and `Umar were amongst those who were present, but they dared not talk to him about that (because of excessive respect for him), and those who were in a hurry went out. They said, "Has the prayer been reduced?" A man who was called Dhul-Yadain by the Prophet (ﷺ) said (to the Prophet), "Has the prayer been reduced or have you forgotten?" He said, "Neither have I forgotten, nor has the prayer been reduced." He said, "Certainly you have forgotten." So the Prophet (ﷺ) offered two more rak`at and performed Taslim and then said Takbir and performed a prostration of Sahu like his ordinary prostration or a bit longer and then raised his head and said Takbir and then put his head down and performed a prostration like his ordinary prostration or a bit longer, and then raised his head and said Takbir

Rapporté par Abu Huraira : Le Prophète (ﷺ) a accompli l’une des prières du soir (le narrateur Muhammad pense que c’était probablement la prière du `Asr) et il l’a terminée après seulement deux rak`at. Il s’est alors tenu près d’un morceau de bois devant la mosquée et a posé sa main dessus. Abu Bakr et `Umar étaient présents, mais par respect, ils n’osaient rien lui dire. Ceux qui étaient pressés sont sortis. Ils ont dit : « La prière a-t-elle été raccourcie ? » Un homme que le Prophète (ﷺ) appelait Dhul-Yadain lui a dit : « La prière a-t-elle été raccourcie ou as-tu oublié ? » Il a répondu : « Je n’ai ni oublié, ni la prière n’a été raccourcie. » Il a dit : « Tu as certainement oublié. » Alors le Prophète (ﷺ) a fait deux autres rak`at, a terminé avec le Taslim, puis a dit le Takbir et a fait une prosternation de l’oubli comme d’habitude, ou un peu plus longue, puis il a relevé la tête, a dit le Takbir, puis s’est prosterné à nouveau comme d’habitude, ou un peu plus longtemps, puis il a relevé la tête et a dit le Takbir
