The Two Rak'ahs of Sunrise: Does One Intend with Them the Duha Prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The two rak'ahs that are performed after the sun rises: does one intend with them the Duha prayer?

Answer:
Even if one does not intend it, it is the Duha prayer. However, if one prays other rak'ahs when the sun is high, that is better. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed eight rak'ahs. So if one prays eight, or six, or four, that is better.
Q: And the hadith that its reward is like a Hajj and 'Umrah?
A: There is nothing wrong with it; its chains of narration are good.
