Sahih al-Bukhari 7105 (Book 97, Hadith 16)
“Allahu Akbar.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Don’t trouble yourselves too much! You are not calling a deaf or
an absent person, but you are calling One Who Hears, Sees, and is very near.” Then he came to me
while I was saying in my heart, “La hawla wala quwwatta illa billah (There is neither might nor power
but with Allah).” He said, to me, “O `Abdullah bin Qais! Say, ‘La hawla wala quwwata illa billah
(There is neither might nor power but with Allah), for it is one of the treasures of Paradise.” Or said,
“Shall I tell you of it?”
