What should someone do if they miss Esha and the first 4 rakaats of tarawih at the mosque?

Assalamu Alaikum
If someone walks into the mosque, missing Esha and 1st 4 rakaats of tarawih, does he catch up then join, or pray the missed rakaats of tarawih after witr has finished?
Answer
Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

One should perform the ‘Isha Salah individually and join in the Taraweeh Salah and complete the missed Rakats of Taraweeh after the Witr Salah.

(Raddul Muhtar Vol.1 Pg.659)

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
