Does the prayer become invalid if the Imam made a mistake in supplication during the prayer and said: "O Allah, verily You decree and none can decree against You"?
Allah has forgiven this nation for their mistakes and forgetfulness, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, Allah has forgiven for my nation their mistakes, their forgetfulness, and what they are forced to do." So, if the Imam makes a wrong statement unintentionally, it does not affect the validity of the prayer, nor does he incur sin, because Allah said, "I have done so," when the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, recited Allah's saying: "Our Lord, do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake."
