in what he makes up, [he recites] the Fatiha and a surah, thus it is the beginning of the prayer, like one who is not a masbuq. I do not know of any disagreement among the four Imams regarding the recitation of the Fatiha and a surah. Ibn Abd al-Barr said: 'All of those who hold these two views together say: He makes up what he missed with the praise of Allah and a surah, according to what his Imam recited, except for Ishaq, al-Muzani, and Dawud, who said: He recites the praise alone.' Based on the opinion of one who says that he recites the Fatiha and a surah during the making up [of the prayer], the benefit of the disagreement is not apparent, except in regards to the opening supplication and the seeking of refuge when separating from the Imam, and in the placement of the sitting for the first tashahhud in the case of one who caught one rak'ah of the Maghrib or a four-rak'ah prayer. And Allah knows best.

Section: There is a difference of opinion regarding the placement of the sitting and the first tashahhud in the case of one who caught one rak'ah of the Maghrib or a four-rak'ah prayer when he makes it up. It was narrated from Ahmad that when he stands, he performs the opening supplication and prays two consecutive rak'ahs, reciting the praise of Allah and a surah in each one. He explicitly stated this in a narration by Harb, and Jundab did the same. This is because they are the beginning of his prayer, so he does not perform the tashahhud between them, like one who is not a masbuq. Furthermore, making up [the prayer] is done according to the format of the performance (ada'), and there is no sitting in the performance. Also, because they are two rak'ahs in each of which he recites the praise of Allah and a surah, so he does not sit between them, like two performed rak'ahs. The second narration is that he stands and performs one rak'ah, in which he recites the praise of Allah and a surah, then he sits, then he stands and performs another with the praise of Allah and a surah in the Maghrib, or two consecutive rak'ahs in the four-rak'ah prayer, reciting the praise of Allah and a surah in the first, and the praise alone in the second. This was transmitted by Salih, Abu Dawud, and al-Athram. Masruq did this as well. Abdullah ibn Mas'ud said: 'He should do as Masruq did.' This is the view of Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, for it was narrated from him that he said to al-Zuhri: 'What is the prayer in which one sits in every rak'ah of it?' Sa'id said: 'It is the Maghrib when you catch one rak'ah of it.' And because the third [rak'ah] is the end of his prayer in action, so it is necessary that he sits
