In this Hadīth, ‘Ā'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) informed that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform the Duha Prayer as four Rak‘ahs, making Taslīm after every two Rak‘ahs. She also mentioned that he would sometimes pray more than four Rak‘ahs, according to his ability and how active he felt.
