However, no authentic hadith has been narrated about praying it as six <em>rak`ahs<\/em>. Imam Ibn Al-`Iraqi said, \u201cSuch prayer used to be offered by `Abdullah ibn Mas`ud, `Abdullah ibn `Umar, Salman Al-farsi, Ibn Malik, Al-Aswad ibn Yazid, Sa`id ibn Jubair, Ibn Abi Maleekah, etc.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Responding to this question, Dr. Muhammad Salah sates that it is recommended to pray as many <em>rak`ahs<\/em> as one wishes between Maghrib and `Isha\u2019.
