Question
During the prayer of the Ten Days of Repentance, he made a mistake and said 'Ha-El HaKadosh' but immediately corrected himself and said 'HaMelech HaKadosh'. However, he is unsure if the correction was made within the required time. What should he do?
Answer
If it was during the weekdays of the Ten Days of Repentance, he should repeat the prayer with a condition that if he is not obligated to repeat, this prayer will be considered a voluntary prayer. If it was on Shabbat or the Days of Awe, when one cannot pray voluntarily, he does not repeat the prayer. If possible, he should listen to the entire prayer from the shaliach tzibbur and intend to fulfill his obligation if he is required to pray.
