If someone forgets to say "Rabbana wa lakal-hamd" (O our Lord, and to You be all praise) after rising from bowing:
If he is a follower (ma'mum), he does not have to perform the prostration of forgetfulness (sujud al-sahw), and the Imam bears it on his behalf.
If he is praying alone or is an Imam and forgets this, his prayer is valid, and he does not owe anything.
