Question
The Imaam performed by mistake four raka'ts Taraaweeh instead of the usual two raka'ts. What is the state of the Taraaweeh?
Answer
If the Imaam has sat for Tashahhud in the second raka't, then all four will be Taraaweeh. If he had omitted the Qa'dah (Sitting), then two raka'ts will be Taraaweeh and two raka'ts Nafl. He was also supposed to make Sajdah Sahw.
