Making the Intention of Taraaweeh salaah while performing the Witr salaah

Q: Salaah-195: I forgot to perform the last two Rakaahs of the Taraaweeh Salaah and started the Witr salaah. I then realised the error only while sitling in the Witr salaah (in the first sitting). What will be the ruling if I now change the intention to Taraaweeh salaah and make Salaam after two Rakaahs?

Answer: These two Rakaahs will not be regarded as part of the Taraaweeh salaah.
