Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said regarding someone who does not know whether he prayed three or four Rak'ahs: "He should repeat the prayer until he is certain." [Narrated by Ibn Abi Shaybah]
In another narration from him: "As for me, if I do not know how many Rak'ahs I prayed, I repeat the prayer." A similar narration is reported from Ibn Jubayr, Ash-Sha'bi, and Shurayh.
