Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Does praying two rak'ahs after the sun rises, and likewise two other rak'ahs, suffice for the two rak'ahs of the Dhuha prayer?

Answer:
The minimum for the Dhuha prayer is two rak'ahs, and the maximum is eight rak'ahs. Each two rak'ahs are concluded with a taslim. If he prays two rak'ahs, that is the minimum; if he prays four rak'ahs, that is better, up to eight. All of it is good.
