How should one pray the four Sunnah rak’ahs of Zuhr?

Question: 4057

When one prays the four Sunnah
rak’ahs of Zuhr, before or after [the fard prayer], or the Sunnah of ‘Asr,
should he say the Salaam once or twice? [i.e., should he put all four rak’ahs
together, or pray them two by two?]

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

It is permissible for him to pray them with one tashahhud or two [i.e., he may pray them all together or two by two], but it is preferable to say the salaam twice [to pray them two by two].
