Reciting Surah Faatihah before Attahiyyaat
Question
If I recite alhamadu mistakenly before attahiyyaat in the last sitting and then do sajda-e-sahw, after sajda-e-sahw if I again mistakenly recite alhamadu before attahiyyaat, do I need to do sajda-e-sahw again or my prayer is valid without it?
Answer
No. The prayer is valid.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
