Your code contain many mistakes.
Let assume that
G[a_?NumericQ] := ((-(a - Cos[0.5])^(-3/2))/(3*(
10)^2))*(Sin[0.5])^(2) + (1/1 -
0.1*0.1)*(-(0.005*(1 +
Cos[0.5]) + 0.001/1000)*(1 + Cos[0.5])^(1/
2)*(ArcTan[(
a - Cos[0.5])^(1/2)/(1 + Cos[0.5])^(1/2)] - Pi/
2) + (0.005*(1 - Cos[0.5]) - 0.001/1000)*(1 -
Cos[
0.5])^(-1/
2)*(-ArcTanh[(1 - Cos[0.5])^(1/2)/(a -
Cos[0.5])^(1/2)]) )
P[a_?NumericQ] := Re[N[LegendreP[(-1/2) + I, a]]]
Plot[G[a], {a, 1, 10}]
Plot[P[a], {a, 1, 20}]
Plot[P[a]G[a], {a, 1, 20}]
Then
Block[{Message}, NIntegrate[G[a]*P[a], {a, 1, Infinity},
SingularityDepth -> 1000]]
-0.00259109
