Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 3916

وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " لَقِّنُوا مَوْتَاكُمْ شَهَادَةَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَمَنْ قَالَهَا عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ " قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَنْ قَالَهَا فِي صِحَّتِهِ ؟ قَالَ : " تِلْكَ أَوْجَبُ وَأَوْجَبُ " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ جِيءَ بِالسَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ وَمَا بَيْنَهُنَّ وَمَا تَحْتَهُنَّ فَوُضِعْنَ فِي كِفَّةِ الْمِيزَانِ وَوُضِعَتْ شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فِي الْكِفَّةِ الْأُخْرَى لَرَجَحَتْ بِهِنَّ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ ، إِلَّا أَنَّ ابْنَ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Prompt those of you who are on the verge of death to bear witness to 'La ilaha illallah'. Whoever says this word when close to death, Paradise becomes due for him." The people said: "O Messenger of Allah! What will the one who says this word while in good health receive?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That makes it even more due, even more due." Then he said: "By the One in whose hand is my soul, if all the heavens and the earth, and whatever is in them, and whatever is between them, and whatever is beneath them, were brought and placed in one pan of the Scale, and the testimony of 'La ilaha illallah' were placed in the other pan, it would outweigh them all."
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy), except that Ibn Abi Talhah did not hear from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him).
