Did Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen make a statement regarding the latecomer saying the takbir when making up missed rak'ahs, and is it valid to use his statement as evidence for someone who made the tasleem but still had one rak'ah remaining, arguing that they do not say the takbir for standing, by analogy with the situation of the latecomer?

Regarding the takbir for a latecomer (masbuq) when making up what he missed, there is a difference of opinion:
- If he caught the last rak'ah, he does not perform takbir when standing up to make up [the missed rak'ahs].
- If he did not catch a complete rak'ah, then he performs takbir when standing up to make up [the missed rak'ahs].
- Some scholars hold the view that takbir should be performed in all circumstances.
