What is the ruling regarding someone who forgot the first Tashahhud in the Dhuhr prayer, then performed the prostrations of forgetfulness (sujood as-sahw) before reciting the final Tashahhud? Is their prayer valid?
What the Imam did by prostrating for forgetfulness (sujud al-sahw) before the tashahhud is sufficient, and their prayer is valid. One tashahhud is enough for the prayer and for the prostration of forgetfulness.
