and when the Iqama is pronounced he again takes to his heels and when it is finished, he again
comes back and continues reminding the praying person of things that he used not to remember
when not in prayer till he forgets how much he has prayed.” Abu Salama bin ‘Abdur-Rahman said, “If
anyone of you has such a thing (forgetting the number of Rakat he has prayed) he should perform
two prostrations of Sahu (i.e. forgetfulness) while sitting.” Abu Salama narrates this from Abu
Huraira.
