Forgetting the Closing Salam in the Night Voluntary Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I was praying a voluntary prayer at night, two rak'ahs, two rak'ahs, and I did not notice and did not say the taslim, so I continued in the other two taslims. Should I make them four with one tashahhud?

Answer:
The night prayer is (to be offered) two by two.صلاة الليل مثنى مثنى
Sunan Ibn Majah 1319Sahih (Darussalam)
As the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, if you stand up for the third rak'ah and then remember, sit down, recite the tashahhud, then perform two prostrations for forgetfulness and conclude the prayer with the salam. Yes.

May Allah bless you,
