6610. Narrated Abū Mūsā: While we were with Allāh's Messenger ﷺ in a holy battle, we never went up a hill or reached its peak or went down a valley but raised our voices with Takbīr(1). Allāh's Messenger ﷺ came close to us and said, "O people! Don't exert yourselves, for you are not calling a deaf or an absent one, but you call the All-Listener, the All-Seer." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "O 'Abdullāh bin Qais! Shall I teach you a sentence which is from the treasures of Paradise? (It is) 'Lā haula wa lā quwwata illā billāh. (There is neither might nor power except with Allāh).'"

6610 - حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ أَبُو الحَسَنِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا خَالِدٌ الحَذَّاءُ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزَاةٍ، فَجَعَلْنَا لاَ نَصْعَدُ شَرَفًا، وَلاَ نَعْلُو شَرَفًا، وَلاَ نَهْبِطُ فِي وَادٍ إِلَّا رَفَعْنَا أَصْوَاتَنَا بِالتَّكْبِيرِ، قَالَ: فَدَنَا مِنَّا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، ارْبَعُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ، فَإِنَّكُمْ لاَ تَدْعُونَ أَصَمَّ وَلاَ غَائِبًا، إِنَّمَا تَدْعُونَ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًا» ثُمَّ قَالَ: «يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ، أَلاَ أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَةً هِيَ مِنْ كُنُوزِ الجَنَّةِ، لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ»
