If the imam forgets and recites aloud in the 'Asr prayer, does he have to perform the prostration for forgetfulness?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the imam forgets and recites aloud in the 'Asr prayer, for example, and then is reminded and becomes aware, does he have to perform the prostration for forgetfulness?

Answer:
It is recommended. If one recites aloud where silence is required, or recites silently where loud recitation is required, and then becomes aware, he should perform the prostration for forgetfulness as a recommendation, not as an obligation.
