Is it a recommended practice (sunnah) for the husband and wife to pray two rak'ahs on the wedding night?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner says: O esteemed Shaykh, is it a recommended practice (sunnah) for the man or the woman to pray two rak'ahs on the wedding night in front of the woman?

The Shaykh : Some of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) did this, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed two rak'ahs when he entered upon his wives or when they entered upon him. However, I do not know of this being done by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family).
