Hadith.1021 - Abdurrahman ibn Al-Hajjaj narrated from Abu Ibrahim who said
"I asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) about a man who does not know whether he prayed two, three, or four rak'ahs. Imam (as) said: 'He should pray two rak'ahs standing, then make salaam (salutation), then pray two more rak'ahs while sitting.'
1021 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ اَلْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ، رَجُلٌ لاَ يَدْرِي أَ ثِنْتَيْنِ صَلَّى أَمْ ثَلاَثاً أَمْ أَرْبَعاً فَقَالَ «يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ مِنْ قِيَامٍ ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمُ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَ هُوَ جَالِسٌ.
