Reminding the Admirer of the Saying "What Allah Willed, There Is No Power Except in Allah"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, O Shaykh. If, for example, we see someone and are amazed or surprised by something, we say to him
say, 'What Allah willed [has occurred]; there is no power except in Allah 'قُلْتَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
[Al-Kahf 18:39]
.

Answer:
There is no harm, that is fine. By way of translation,
What Allah willed [has occurred]; there is no powerمَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا
[Al-Kahf 18:39]
or, for example, "What Allah willed. There is no power except in You." That is sufficient.
