Title: Saying takbir while going to sajdah (not the initial one) and getting stuck while reciting it but we recited it correctly

Question: I have a few questions to ask which are bothering me a lot: (1) Saying takbir while going to sajdah (not the initial one) and getting stuck while reciting it but we recited it correctly, will it invalidate the salah since I read that if we say AAallahu Akbar instead of Allahu Akbar, salah will be invalid. I am facing severe waswasah while saying takbir in the whole salah, since I do not want to nullify my salah. Please explain this matter. (2) Stopping someone who is propagating what the Barelvi deviant sect lies about regarding our beloved Ulama is permissible? I tried to tell the reality regarding what that person was saying and saw him get hurt when I told him that the Barelvi bidati could not understand what our Ulama wrote. His attitude changed with me since then of course but what else could I do? Please make dua for me since I am facing severe waswasah on matters on which I do not even have complete knowledge.

Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 986/811/B=1433) (1) It is Sunnah to say takbir i.e. Allahu Akbar while going in sajdah. Allahu Akbar should be pronounced correctly. It is wrong to say Aallahu Akbar by raising intonation of Alif as it changes its meaning. In case of reciting it in this way, it changes with the meaning "Is Allah the greatest of all? Lest no such doubt comes in your mind. (2) You should keep on making them understand politely. May Allah help you!
