    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    The sajdah sahv (remedial prostration) does not become wajib only committing mistake in qiraah (recitation of the Quran) or by forgetting a verse. But if one keeps quite equal to the time of reciting SaubhanAllah thrice after forgetting, he must perform sajdah sahv (remedial prostration).

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
