Joining the second and third Aayah of Surah Faatiha

Q: Why do some Aalims add the word "be" in the line of Surah Faatiha that says maaliki yowm midd deen, hence they say "Bemaaliki yowm midd deen"?

A: This is incorrect. The correct is as follows:

الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ مـٰلِكِ يَومِ الدّينِ

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