Forgetting the Recitation of al-Fatihah in the Second Rak'ah of the 'Asr Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: I forgot to recite al-Fatihah in the second rak'ah of the 'Asr prayer. What is obligatory for me?

The Shaykh:
You must perform a rak'ah, because this rak'ah is invalid; you left out one of its pillars. Yes.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
You perform a rak'ah after the taslim. If you do not remember until a long time has passed, you must repeat the entire prayer, because it was not valid. Yes.
