The imam said the takbir for bowing, but we did not notice until after he had risen from the bowing, so what is obligatory upon us?

Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: We prayed the midday prayer in congregation, but the imam did not say the takbir for bowing aloud, and we did not notice until after he had risen from the bowing, so the bowing was missed. What must we do? You perform a rak'ah after the imam says the taslim. You perform a rak'ah. Yes. The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, asks: Is there a fear of missing the congregation? Yes. Repeat the question? He says: We prayed the midday prayer in congregation, but the imam did not say the takbir for bowing aloud? Yes. And we did not notice until after he had risen from the bowing, so the bowing was missed.

Answer:
Yes, this is a pillar of the pillars of prayer that you missed. If a pillar is left, it is like leaving a complete rak'ah. When the imam says the taslim, you stand up and perform a complete rak'ah, and you prostrate for forgetfulness. Yes.
