Majma al-Zawaid 17152 — What one says on seeing something that pleases

وَعَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنْ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ بِنِعْمَةٍ فَأَرَادَ بَقَاءَهَا ; فَلْيُكْثِرْ مِنْ قَوْلِ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ " . ثُمَّ قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : ( وَلَوْلَا إِذْ دَخَلْتَ جَنَّتَكَ قُلْتَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ ) . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِيهِ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ نَجِيحٍ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .
Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When Allah Almighty grants a slave some blessing and he wishes it to last, he should frequently recite 'La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah'." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse:
"And why, when you entered your garden, did you not say: What Allah wills (comes to pass); there is no power except with the help of Allah Almighty?" [Al-Kahf: 39]
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains a narrator, Abd al-Rahman bin Khalid bin Najih, who is da'if (weak).
