Sitting After Second Sajda Of First And Third Rakats (Jalsa-e-Istirahat)
In the second and last rakat of each prayer , a person should do qadah ( to sit with legs folded backwards ). No specific timing or supplication has been fixed in this regard but Muslims usually recite attahiyat during this Qada ( after second rakat ) and additional prayers during the last qada ( after last rakat ). It results in both a good supplication and also ensures that proper qadah has been performed ( a complete proper sitting which was the main objective ).
