The questioner : A man stood up for the fifth [rak'ah]. He remembered before he began the recitation. What do you say?
The Shaykh : Yes, he must go back to the place of the delay.
The questioner : All right, he began the recitation?
The Shaykh : And, if Allah wills, because it is an extra rak'ah.
The questioner : Do we say it is like the first tashahhud?
The Shaykh : The first [tashahhud] is obligatory. Yes. Also, the tashahhud is a deficiency, whereas this is an addition. Some imams were ignorant and thought that if a person stands up for an extra [rak'ah] and begins the recitation, it is forbidden for him to go back, and this is an error. This [ruling] applies only to the one who stands up from the first tashahhud,
