Question:
The scholars, O Shaykh, have said that it is recommended to prompt the dying person to say "There is no god but Allah," but without saying "Say it," because he might become annoyed.
Answer:
Yes, the dying person is prompted to say "There is no god but Allah" so that he may end his life with it, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)Sunan Abi Dawud 3116Sahih (Al-Albani).

Yes.
