Question:
Anas's statement: "He used to see us praying them, but he did not order us to do so, nor did he forbid us (regarding the two rak'ahs before Maghrib)"?

Answer:
The matter was hidden from him; because it was commanded:

Pray before Maghrib

صلوا قبل المغرب

But the hadith of Abdullah ibn Mughaffal was hidden from Anas; it was hidden from Anas.
