What is the origin of the supplication: "We have come upon you with 'There is no god but Allah,' and we have bridled your mouths with 'There is no might nor power except with Allah,' and we have placed your evil in your own throats. Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs," and what is the ruling on one who supplicates with it believing that it resolves difficult matters when recited 10 times?

The supplication mentioned in the is: "O Allah, there is no ease except that which You make easy, and You make the difficult easy if You wish."
