The testimony of a disbeliever at the time of death

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a disbeliever pronounces the two testimonies of faith while at the point of death, is he treated as a Muslim and is the funeral prayer performed for him?

Answer:
When the soul reaches the throat, his Islam is not accepted, and his testimony is not accepted. Everyone repents at the point of death, but it is not accepted from him
Indeed Allah accepts the repentance of a slave as long as (his soul does not reach his throat).إن الله يقبل توبة العبد ما لم يغرغر
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3537Hasan (Darussalam)
meaning when his soul reaches the throat, his repentance is not accepted. Yes.
