Hadith 572 Part G

setting

'Abdullah (b. Mas'ud) reported

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led us five (rak'ahs in prayer). We said : Messenger of Allah , has the prayer been extended ? He said : What is the matter ? They said : You have said five (rak'ahs). He (the Holy Prophet) said : Verily I am a human being like you. I remember as you remember and I forget just as you forget. He then performed two prostrations as (compensation of) forgetfulness.
