The ruling on one who forgets a pillar of the prayer and remembers it after a period of time

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person forgets a pillar of the prayer and remembers it after a long or short period, what should he do?

Answer:
If he remembers it soon, it is like leaving a complete rak'ah; he stands, performs a rak'ah, and prostrates for forgetfulness. But if he remembers it after a long interval, or if his wudu' has been broken, he repeats the prayer from the beginning.
