Recites? FAIDHA HUM BILISSA HIRA instead of FAIDHA HUM BISSA HIRA

Q: Salaah-342: What do the Ulema and Muftis have to say about ruling concerning an Imaam who recites ; FAIDHA HUM BILISSA HIRA place of FAIDHA HUM BISSA HIRA This he recited intentionally because he learnt to read it as instead of a (small HAA)

Answer: Such an error is serious because it drastically affects the meaning of the verse. Furthermore. there is no word (BILISSA HIRAH) anywhere in the Qur'aan and the Imaam recited it intentionally and is one with knowledge. The salaah will therefore be nullified and will have to be rcpeated.
Here follows two Fataawaa of Hadhrat Mufti Kifaaytullaah RAH. to shed more light on the matter:
