Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is mentioned in the hadith the phrase "Subhanak fa-bila." Is not "bila" a word of human speech, and thus does it invalidate the prayer?

The Shaykh:
"Hawla wa quwwat illa billah." Does the prayer become invalid if one says what is not mentioned in the authentic hadith? It does not become invalid in this case. Yes.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
It is mentioned in the hadith. Yes.
