A: When a person remembers the first Tashahhud before standing up fully, he as to return to the sitting position and perform it. If he remembers the first Tashahhud after standing up fully but before starting the recitation of Surah Al-Fatihah; it will be Makruh (disliked) for him to return to the sitting position to perform Tashahhud. Besides, if they remember the Tashahhud after starting the recitation of Surah Al-Fatihah; it will be Haram (prohibited) for him to return to the sitting position. However, the person in question has in all cases to perform Sujud-ul-Sahw (Prostration of Forgetfulness).May Allah grant us success.
