[Machine] I asked the wives of the Prophet ﷺ and his companions if the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray the Duha prayer. They did not confirm anything in that regard except that they mentioned that when he would return from a journey, he would first go to the mosque and pray two units of prayer, then he would sit until those around him from the Muslims would come and greet him, and then he would go to his wives.  

الكبرى للنسائي:٨٧٢٢أَخْبَرَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْهِرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمْزَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

«سَأَلْتُ أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابَهُ هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي سُبْحَةَ الضُّحَى؟ فَلَمْ يُثْبِتُوا فِي ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ ذَكَرُوا أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ نَزَلَ الْمُعَرَّسَ حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ ضُحًى فَيَبْدَأَ بِالْمَسْجِدِ فَيَرْكَعُ فِيهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَجْلِسُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ مَنْ حَوْلَهُ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَيُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَرْتَفِعُ إِلَى أَزْوَاجِهِ»
