The questioner : May Allah reward you. He forgot to send blessings upon the Prophet while he was the imam, so what is the ruling?
The Shaykh : He prays.
The questioner : He forgot and said the taslim.
The Shaykh : He returns to the tashahhud, sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), completes the tashahhud, and says the taslim, then he performs the prostration for forgetfulness.
The questioner : How does he inform the congregation?
The Shaykh : How? What?
The questioner : Does he inform the congregation when they have stood up and left?
The Shaykh : Those who have left owe nothing, but as for those who remained with him, they will follow his action.
The questioner : May Allah bless you, O Shaykh, and benefit you with your knowledge.
