Ruling on the shortening of the prayer of a traveler behind a resident imam

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I caught up with the 'Isha' prayer while I was traveling, so I prayed it as two rak'ahs behind a resident imam. Is this prayer of mine valid?

Answer:
Your prayer is not valid, and it is obligatory for you to make it up as four rak'ahs; because it is authentically established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) what indicates that if a traveler prays behind a resident, he is required to pray four rak'ahs. And success is from Allah.
