Prayer Behind Someone Who Says 'Wala al-Dhalin'

Question
What is the ruling on praying behind someone who says: 'Wala al-Dhalin' instead of 'al-Dhalin'?
Answer

I say, with Allah's guidance: Usually, these very common slips of the tongue, especially in non-Arab countries, are excused, and Allah knows best.
