Forgot rinsing mouth in ghusl

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Fatwa.org.au
Sometimes I forget to rinse my mouth/nostrils while making ghusl. I rinse my mouth/nostrils after a couple of hours (i.e. when I remember). Am I relieved of my janaba this way or will I have to repeat the entire ghusl?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

You should rinse your mouth and nostrils whenever you remember. There is no need to repeat the entire ghusl.
