If the ma'mum (one praying behind the imam) is delayed in prostration until the imam has risen, does he prostrate or perform a rak'ah after the imam's taslim?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: I was delayed in prostration until the imam had risen. Do I prostrate or do I repeat the rak'ah in full?

Answer:
Prostrate after him. If you did so intentionally, the rak'ah is invalid; you perform a full rak'ah after the imam has said the taslim. If you were not intentional and you realized it, you bow after him or prostrate after him, then you catch up with him, and that is sufficient, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
