The answer

The prayer of one who doubts having missed a rak'ah after finishing the prayer is valid. The congregation's prayer is also valid if they doubt having missed a rak'ah after their Imam has given the salām. However, if one is certain that they missed a rak'ah, they must perform it before a long time elapses. "A long time" is estimated by exiting the mosque or staying in it for a duration that is conventionally considered long. If a long time has elapsed, then the entire prayer must be repeated.
