Question:
A questioner says that he was praying Maghrib, and after he had prayed two rak'ahs, he forgot to sit for the intermediate tashahhud, and he stood up and performed the third rak'ah, then he performed the tashahhud, and then he prayed a fourth rak'ah?
Answer:
Was he forgetful?
Q: He was unaware of the ruling.
A: Did he perform the fourth rak'ah because he omitted the sitting?
Q: Yes.
A: He owes nothing as long as he was unaware, but he should be taught.
Q: And what is the ruling if he was not unaware?
A: He is not standing [in prayer] except if he is unaware.
Q: I mean if he was not unaware and did this out of forgetfulness?
A: The forgetful one is more severe and more severe.
