Peace be upon you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is the prostration for forgetfulness valid for the voluntary prayer of the morning?

Yes, the prostration for forgetfulness is prescribed in prayer, whether it is obligatory or voluntary. If one forgets in the voluntary prayer, it is like the forgetfulness of a sick person in the obligatory prayer; he prostrates for forgetfulness.
