 Definitely there could be no greater and more important a statement than 'Laa ilaaha illa Allah' (there is no deity worthy of worship but Allah).
It is the statement of declaration of belief in the Tawheed of Allah which is the dividing line between Imaan and kufr - It was the call of all of the previous Messengers and Prophets.
Allah (swt) Himself attested to the importance of this statement in the Qur’an:
"...and know that Laa ilaaha illa Allah (that there is no deity worthy of worship but Allah)..." [47:19, 20:8, 3:18, 59:22-3] |

"So know that Laa ilaaha illa Allah (that there is no deity worthy of worship but Allah), and ask forgiveness for your sin, and also for (the sin of) believing men and believing women. And Allah knows well your moving about, and your place of rest (in your homes)." [Surah Muhammad (47):19]
