Ruling on one who catches up with the tashahhud with the imam in Eid prayer or prayers for rain

Dear Brothers & Sisters,
As-Salaamu-Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:
What is the ruling on one who catches up with the tashahhud with the worshippers in Eid prayer or prayers for rain? Does he have to pray two rak’ahs as the imam did or what should he do?.

Answer:
Praise be to Allaah.

If a person catches up with the tashahhud only with the imam in Eid prayer or prayer for rain, he should pray two rak’ahs after the imam says the salaam, doing in them as the imam did of takbeer, recitation, bowing and prostrating. 

And Allah is the source of strength. May Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and Companions. End quote. 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah's Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.
