Must he read tashahud in both the missed rakaats.

Answer

Respected Brother-in-Islam

Assalaamu Álaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

The person may sit immediately after performing the first missed Rakaat and thereafter perform the second Rakaat. He may also perform the two missed Rakaats without sitting after the first Rakaat.

And Allah Taãla Knows Best.

Was salaam
