Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub from Ya‘qub from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Ibn Udhaynah from Zurarah from Abu Ja’far عليه السلام, peace be upon him, that he said: Imam al-Baqir عليه السلام said: “When the Maghrib prayer is in a situation of fear, he (imam of prayer) divides them into two groups. He prays with one group two rak‘ahs, then sits with them. Then he signals to them with his hand, so each person among them stands and prays one rak‘ah, then they say the taslim. Then they take the place of their companions. And the other group comes, says the takbir, and enters into the prayer, and the imam (of prayer) stands and prays with them one rak‘ah, then says the taslim. Then each man among them stands and prays one rak‘ah, pairing it with the one he prayed with the imam (of prayer). Then he stands and prays a rak‘ah in which there is no recitation. Thus, the imam (of prayer) completed three rak‘ahs, and the first group had two rak‘ahs in congregation, and the latter group prayed individually. So the first group had the takbir and the opening of the prayer, and the latter had the taslim.”
