The Arabic word illa is a negative word corresponding to the English except, only and but .

Use

It is an often recurring phrase in the Qur'an, often used to give strength to statements by first negating all possibilities, and then referring to a subject. For example, in the Islamic Creed ({{lang-ar|Shahada}}):

Arabic text:
{{lang|ar|أشهد أن لا إله إلاَّ لله ، وأشهد أن محمدًا رسول الله }}
Romanization:
{{transl|ar|DIN|'ašhadu 'al-lā ilāha illā-llāh, wa 'ašhadu 'anna muħammadan rasūlu-llāh}}
English translations:
I testify that there is no god but Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.^[1]

This can also be seen in the prayer La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah, There is neither change nor power except by means of God.
