OTHER VIEW
Unfortunately the OP decided to see with one eye (opinion).

In simpler words, Ibn Baz believed that ‘Uthman erroneously added basmala to the text of Surat al-Fatihah. This definitely is undiluted tahrif (distortion)!

Ibn Kathir
Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir, in his exegesis of Surat al-Fatihah, also submits:

http://www.qtafsir.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=90&Itemid=35

"Bismillah is the First Ayah of Al-Fatihah.

The Companions started the Book of Allah with Bismillah:

(1. In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.)

The scholars also agree that Bismillah is a part of an Ayah in Surat An-Naml (chapter 27). They disagree over whether it is a separate Ayah before every Surah, or if it is an Ayah, or a part of an Ayah, included in every Surah where the Bismillah appears in its beginning. Ad-Daraqutni also recorded a Hadith from Abu Hurayrah from the Prophet that supports this Hadith by Ibn Khuzaymah. Also, similar statements were attributed to `Ali, Ibn `Abbas and others.

The opinion that Bismillah is an Ayah of every Surah, except Al-Bara'ah (chapter 9), was attributed to (the Companions) Ibn `Abbas, Ibn `Umar, Ibn Az-Zubayr, Abu Hurayrah and `Ali. This opinion was also attributed to the Tabi`in: `Ata', Tawus, Sa`id bin Jubayr, Makhul and Az-Zuhri. This is also the view of `Abdullah bin Al-Mubarak, Ash-Shafi`i, Ahmad bin Hanbal, (in one report from him) Ishaq bin Rahwayh and Abu `Ubayd Al-Qasim bin Salam. On the other hand, Malik, Abu Hanifah and their followers said that Bismillah is not an Ayah in Al-Fatihah or any other Surah. Dawud said that it is a separate Ayah in the beginning of every Surah, not part of the Surah itself, and this opinion was also attributed to Ahmad bin Hanbal."

The matter is very serious now. If basmala is not a verse of Surat al-Fatihah as Ibn Baz claimed, then all those Sahabah and others who believed that it is were guilty of tahrif. By contrast, if those Salaf were correct, then Ibn Baz, Imam Malik, Imam Abu Hanifah and their followers were all guilty of tahrif. There is no win-win situation here for the Ahl al-Sunnah. Whichever position they take, some of the pillars of their sect fall. Basmala is either a verse of Surat al-Fatihah or not. If it is a verse of that surah, whosoever claims that it is not, is guilty of tahrif. By contrast, if it is not a verse of the surah, then anyone who says that it is, is guilty of tahrif.

Jazakum Brother!

The FG may relax the security in the SE and SS during elections to allow
IPOB carry out no vote threat which will lead to low voters turn out against PDP.

that's also what I do all the time. That's how Apple bought Beats by Dr Dre headphone and now they've completely dumped the company. They released new sets of phones and produced their own airpods or wireless earphones. That's how Beats company just died.

they do that to kill start-ups that may pose threat to their market share. It's a strategy.
