(no.1293): Muhammad ibn Yahyaa narrated to us, saying: al-Haytham ibn Jameel narrated to us: from `Ubaydullaah ibn `Amr ar-Raqqee, who said: Ubaydullaah ibn Muhammad ibn Aqeel narrated to us: from Ataa ibn Yasaar: from Aboo Saeed al-Khudree,who said: Allaahýs Messenger (صلّى الله عليه و سلم) had not used to pray anything before the `Eid Prayer. Then when he returned to his house he would pray two rak`ahs.
