This prayer purpose is to show remembrance of Allah. The wisdom and message behind this saying is that man’s nature is weak. Our egos like to put on the facade that we’re macho, capable and independent but true confidence comes to the person who can admit that he is not.

A servant of Allah knows this and can admit he is weak, powerless, and incapable, that is without the will of his Lord. Thus, the importance of reciting this prayer, “La Hawla Wala Quwwata Illa Billah”.

You’re asking Allah to make whatever you desire possible.

We all need help at times, there’s no shame in asking the creator for it. In fact we should ask more of Allah as he is not limited. Whether struggling through difficult financial times, marital problems, or dealing with stress this can be a powerful dhikr to help you pull through.
