1223. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin Buhainah said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ led us in praying two Rak'ahs, then he stood up and did not sit, and the people stood up with him. When he finished the prayer, and we were waiting for him to say the Taslîm, he said the Takbîr and prostrated twice while sitting, before the Taslîm. Then he said the Taslîm." (Sahîh)
1222 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ابْنِ بُحَيْنَةَ، قَالَ: «صَلَّى لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ قَامَ فَلَمْ يَجْلِسْ، فَقَامَ النَّاسُ مَعَهُ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ وَنَظَرْنَا تَسْلِيمَهُ، كَبَّرَ فَسَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ قَبْلَ التَّسْلِيمِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ»

This shows that the prostrations for forgetfulness should be performed before the final Salâm. The view of Imâm Ash-Shafi'i is the same. The Hanafites maintain it should be performed after the final greeting. Imâm Mâlik holds that in the case of non-performance of something that is called for, it should be before Salâm; whereas in the situation of an uncalled for act, the prostration should be performed after the Salâm.
