Transliteration

Lā ḥawla wa-lā quwwata illā bi-llāh

English meaning

There is no power and no strength except with Allah.

When to recite

A treasure from beneath the Throne, taught by the Prophet ﷺ. Repeat it during physically and emotionally hard moments of pregnancy: pelvic pain that won’t shift, a baby who isn’t turning, a long pre-labour week. It is a quiet declaration that you have no power except through Allah — and a reminder that He has all of it.
