Making a mistake in Surah Aala in salaah

Question

Today in witr salah in Surah Aala, I accidentally instead of reading سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ - add lam meem - so I said sayazakaru limai and just stopped in middle of limay then corrected it. Does this change the meaning or invalidate the salah?

Answer

The salaah is valid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
