The Ruling on Reciting Al-Fatiha After the Surah

Question
If the worshiper forgets to recite Al-Fatiha, is it sufficient for him to recite it after reading what is easy from the Quran in the same rak'ah?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: he reads Al-Fatiha, but it remains obligatory for him to perform the prostration of forgetfulness, due to the delay of Al-Fatiha from its place, and God knows best.
