Ruling on alerting the imam by reciting a verse when he makes a mistake

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
All right, Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. If the imam makes a mistake and is alerted but does not realize the error, is it permissible to recite a verse that clarifies the imam's mistake, such as
and prostrate and draw nearواسجد واقترب
or
and stand before Allah, devoutly obedient.وَقُومُوا لِلَّهِ قَانِتِينَ
[Al-Baqarah 2:238]
?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. If they need to do so, they recite a verse that alerts the imam to the type of mistake he made. Yes.
