Does the virtue of "whoever prays with the Imam until he departs, it will be recorded for him as if he had prayed the entire night" apply to someone who prayed two units (tasleematain) with the Imam and then completed his prayer in another mosque?

Standing for an entire night is counted for whoever prays Tarawih with the Imam until he departs, based on the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Indeed, if a man prays with the Imam until he departs, standing for a night will be counted for him." This reward is achieved by praying behind the Imam from the beginning of his prayer until its end, and it is not achieved by merely catching two salutations. If work circumstances prevent the completion of Tarawih in one mosque, then the reward is hoped for based on the intention and what was made easy of the عمل (deed/effort).
