| 'As Salaamu 'Alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuh' *Al Hawqalah*:- Laa Hawla wa Laa Quwwata Illa Billaah. The meaning of this phrase (there is no Power and no Strength Except with ALLAH) is a person's admission that he is unable to do anything without the help and support of ALLAH
The Four {4} Phrases
(SubhaanAllaah, Alhamdulillaah, Laa Illaaha IllAllaah, Allaahu Akbar and the Hawqalah ... (la hawla wa laa quwwata illa billaah) together encompass Tawheed (worshipping Allaah alone) and 'Qadr' (Pre- Decree).
Ibn Abee Awfaa~ (ra) said:- a man came to the Prophet (Sallalaahu Alahi wa Sallam) and said:- "I cannot learn the Qur'aan, so teach me something that will suffice me. He(Sallalaahu Alahi wa Sallam) said:- " SubhaanAllaah, wal hamdulillaah, wa laa illaaha illAllaah, wAllaahu akbar, wa la hawla wa laa quwwata illa billaah..." Aboo Daawood 832; Nisaa'ee 2/143; Daarqutnee 1/313-314).
Aboo Hurayrah (Radhi Allaahu Anhu) said:- "Shall I inform you of a phrase which is under the throne and from amongst the treasures of Paradise? Say:- LAA HAWLA WA LAA QUWWATA ILLA BILLAAH Allaah will say:- 'My servant has submitted himself in intention, action and worship. (aslama wastaslama) { Source :- Haakim~ Dhahabee.~Saheeh & Fath al Baari (11/501) }
A servant does not control any of his affairs. He does not have the means to repel harm or the ability to attain goodness Except by Allaah's Will {!!!} A servant cannot change... disobedience to obedience, sickness to health, weakness to strength, deficiency to perfection Except by Allaah's Help {!} He does not have the ability to take care of his affairs or realize any of his goals except by Allaah's help{!} What Allaah Wills will happen and what He does not Will ,will not happen. The affairs of creation are tied to His Decree and Pre-Destination.
*la hawla wa laa quwwata illa billaah* is a weighty phrase which means being sincere to Allaah alone in asking for help. Just as the phrase of Tawheed:- Laa ilaaha ill Allaah means being sincere to Allaah in worship. Ibn Abbaas (Radhi Allaahu Anhu) defined la hawla wa laa quwwata illa billaah as:-
"We have no ability to act in obedience except through Allaah and we have no power to leave disobedience except through Allaah."
Zaheer bin Muhammad (ra) defined it as:- "You cannot take what you like except by Allaah and you cannot be prevented from what you dislike except by Allaah's help."

But will abide {Forever} the Face of thy Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour" {'Quran'- Surah Al-Rahman-55.26-27 } 'Wasting time is Worse than Death! Because Death Separates you from this World Whereas wasting Time Separates you from Allah'. Ibn Qayimm Al-Jawziyyah.  I Want to Die With my Forehead on the Ground!
