Question

Should someone who made a mistake in the Haftarah reading that changes the meaning be corrected, or since the entire Haftarah is just a custom, do we follow the lenient opinion of the Tur Orach Chaim 142 that they are not corrected (and according to the Bach, even if the mistake changes the meaning), in order not to embarrass the reader? And what is the ruling if it is known that this would embarrass him?

Answer

Shalom Rav

It is necessary to correct a mistake that changes the meaning.
