How does one act if he makes a mistake in the prostration for forgetfulness?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : This person says that he made a mistake in the prostration for forgetfulness. How does he prostrate in the prostration for forgetfulness?

The questioner : He prostrated for forgetfulness, and then after the second prostration, he thought it was the prostration for the prayer, so he stood up and recited the tashahhud.

The Shaykh : Fine, he should conclude the prayer, because a mistake in the prostration for forgetfulness does not necessitate the prostration for forgetfulness. Yes, that is the ruling.

The questioner : If he prostrated after the salam, does he conclude the prayer again?
