Forgetting the Bowing and Remembering It Outside of Prayer

Question
If I forget the bowing and remember it after I have completed my prayer, should I repeat it?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: If you remember it after the greeting but before you speak, eat, or turn to a direction other than the qibla, you can perform a rak'ah and prostrate for forgetfulness. If you remember it after that, you must repeat the prayer, and God knows best.
