Hamelech hakadosh

Question

Do I have to repeat mariv amida if I think I didn't say Hamelech hakadosh

Answer

Shalom!

Thank you for your question.

If you are safek that you did NOT recite "Hamelech Hakadosh" then the Shemoneh Esrei must be repeated. It is important to note that if enough time passes that one doesn't generally remember, then he doesn't have to repeat the shemoneh esrey.  

It does not matter if it is Shacharit, Mincha, or Maariv.
