Reciting an active verb as passive in the prayer

Question

If someone in the prayer recited the passive (majhul) instead of the active (ma‘ruf), that is, in Surah al-‘Adiyat, in [the verses]: [ar]أَفَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِذَا بُعْثِرَ مَا فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ ۝ وَحُصِّلَ مَا فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ ۝ إِنَّ رَبَّهُم بِهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّخَبِيرٌۢ[/ar] “Does he not know that when what is in the graves is overturned, and what is in the breasts is brought out — surely their Lord will on that Day be well aware of them?” (Surah al-‘Adiyat, 100:9–11)

Answer

In the case mentioned the prayer is valid; however, this is not the ruling for every reading of an active form as passive.
