Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: How is the testimony of faith taught to one who is near death, and is this matter repeated to him?
Answer:
Do not be harsh with him. Say "La ilaha illa Allah" (There is no god but Allah) near him so that he hears it and remembers it. Do not tell him to say it, because if they tell him to say it while he is preoccupied with death and the agonies of dying, he may become angry or refuse. So, present it to him gently. Yes.
