Making the Extra Takbeers when One has Missed some Rakaahs of the Eid Salaah

Q: Salaah-287: Should a person make the extra Takbeers when he joined? the Jami'ah only after the Imaam started the Qiraa'ah of the first Rakaah?? If he misses the first Rakaah, how will he make it up?

Answer: If he missed the Takbeers of the first Rakaah and joined in the first? Rakaah once the Qiraa'ah had already started, he should make the extra Takbeers immediately after his Takbeer Tahreemah. If he joined only in the second Rakaah. he must get up after the Imaam makes the Salaam. He must then recite the Thanaa, wudh, Tasmiya, Surah Faatiha and a Surah. Then only should he make the extra Takbeers before proceeding into Ruku. The rest of the salaah should be completed as usual.
