Question regarding Takbir al-Tashriq

Question:

During these days (9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 zul hijjah) after every salat we pray the takbir.

1) What happens if one prays alone? Does he still pray it?

2) What happens if one misses few rakats in jamat?

Answer:

In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,

1) Yes, one still has to recite the Takbir al-Tashriq, even when offering Salat alone and not in congregation (Jama’ah).

2) If one is a Masbuq (i.e. missed Rak’at/s), then the Takbir should be recited after completing the prayer.

And Allah Knows Best
