Does speaking before the prostration for forgetfulness invalidate the prayer?

The questioner : His statement: Sahih Muslim 572j until he said: Here, he spoke after he had mentioned [the dhikr] when he had finished the five [prayers], then he spoke intentionally after he remembered. Does his prayer become invalid?
The Shaykh : His prayer does not become invalid. The prayer does not become invalid even if he enters a state of ritual impurity between the two prostrations of forgetfulness and the closing salam. If the interval is long, he does not perform the prostration. Even if he performs the ablution quickly, it appears that he does not perform the prostration, but if he does perform it, that is better.
Verily I am a human being like you, I forget just as you forget.
إنما أنا بشر مثلكم أنسى كما تنسونIf one of you forgets
