Majma al-Zawaid 16809 — Reports on the virtue of "La ilaha illallah"
وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ - رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ - : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ : " فَعَلْتَ كَذَا وَكَذَا ؟ " . فَقَالَ : لَا . وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَا فَعَلْتُ ، قَالَ : " بَلَى . قَدْ فَعَلْتَ ، وَلَكِنْ غُفِرَ لَكَ بِالْإِخْلَاصِ " .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) states that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked a man: Did you do such-and-such (that is, a sinful deed)? He replied: No! By the One besides whom there is no deity, O Messenger of Allah, I did not do it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes, you did do it, but you have been forgiven because of sincerity (that is, reciting the declaration of Tawhid).
