In Salat, what should one do if they have started with the wrong Surah or have made a mistake while reciting it?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
In salat if we start with surah and we forget it or mistaken in reciting and we recite another surah, is it require sajdah sahv (remedial prostration)?

Answer

(Fatwa: 1016/1016=M/1430)

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).
