The video claims that that specific missile didn't cause the explosion. That is not mutually exclusive to IDF's claim of failed rocket launch.

Watch about around 15 seconds of this video. Failed launch can look very different from normal missile attacks. Their claim, whether true or not, has very little real evidence and jumps to conclusion.

Also worth noting that aljazeera is run by Quatari government.

Did you just link a video from Israeli Defense Forces, while denigrating Al Jazeera for being state media? The irony is palpable.

Dude, that exact missile shown in your video "misfiring" was in the Al Jazeera video. In the latter, they show how that missile was intercepted by an iron dome missle and was very much blown apart. Perhaps by some crazy chance the warhead remained intact and just fell into the hospital parking lot and exploded, which seems very unlikely, although possible. So with this data, I'd bet that whatever exploded at the hospital wasn't a missile or part of a missile. Sooo what was it?
