The answer

It is not permissible to separate the parts of the word of Tawheed (Oneness of God) or the Hawqalah (Lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh - There is no might or power except with Allah), because separating the negation from the affirmation transforms the meaning into a denial of divinity, might, and power from Allah, which is a disbelief held by atheists. These two great phrases must be recited as they were received in the texts of revelation. Therefore, whoever does this must be advised to fear Allah and to utter these ذكر (remembrances) as they were prescribed in to obtain the reward.
