1205. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh said: "(Once) the Prophet ﷺ prayed Zuhṛ with five Rak'ah, and it was said to him: 'Has something been added to the prayer?' He said: 'What is that?' They told him, and he turned back towards the Qiblah and performed two prostrations." (Sahih)
1205 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلَّادٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: " صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الظُّهْرَ خَمْسًا، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: أَزِيدَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟ قَالَ: «وَمَا ذَاكَ؟» فَقِيلَ لَهُ، «فَثَنَى رِجْلَهُ، فَسَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ»

Forgetfulness is a part of human nature that could happen even during an act of worship like prayer. Therefore, whereas negligence is censurable, forgetfulness is not. There is also this wisdom behind the bestowal of the office of prophecy to the humans that, by this way, the Prophet's life-example shall be a source of guidance for all the aspects of human life. Remedial prostration is in order even after one has spoken something after saying his Salâm.
