The Duty of the Congregant in Case of Mistake in Imam's Recitation

Question: If the Imam of the congregation inadvertently makes a mistake in recitation but continues his prayer, can his prayer be considered correct and followed for the next prayers, or should it be established that he recites his next prayers correctly and correctly?
Answer: He can be followed in the next prayers. Of course, if a congregant realizes the Imam's mistake in recitation, he can (in a way that does not invalidate his prayer), make Imam understand his mistake to correct it; Otherwise, he must intend saying prayer individually (furādā) and say the recitation himself.
