لَا_إِلَهَ_إِلَّا_اللهُthere is no god but God

Example sentences

• تقول لا إلهَ إلا الله فتقطعُ تبعيّةَ القلب لِما سوى الله، ثم تُترجمها فعلًا تُقدِّم أمرَه على رغبتك

  You say: 'There is no god but Allah' and cut the heart's dependency on anything besides Allah, then translate it into action: you prioritize His command over your desire.

  لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ — there is no god but God. The creed, built on the absolute-negation frame: 'la' denies the whole class ('no god at all'), 'illa' then carves out the one exception, and 'Allah' is left in the nominative as that sole exception. The negated 'ilah' sits accusative under 'la' while the excepted name rises to nominative — the case contrast itself carries the meaning.
