Bilateral Mistake in a contract Q5

Q.
In November 2014, Ismail agreed orally to build a house for Ali and claim the construction work will be completed by August, 2015. When the contract was written, the typist made an error by typing 'August 2016' instead of 'August 2015'. Both parties signed this contract without noticing the error. In January 2015, Ali noticed the error, and informed Ismail but Ismail refused to amend the agreement and claimed that the agreement is binding. Ali wants the new house completed by August 2015, and he seeks your advice in February 2015. Advise Ali.

(20 marks, 2015 Q5)
