Majma al-Zawaid 3923 — Prompting the dying to say La ilaha illallah

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " لَا يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ : اللَّهُمَّ لَقِّنِّي حُجَّتِي ، فَإِنَّ الْكَافِرَ يُلَقَّنُ حُجَّتَهُ ، وَلَكِنْ لِيَقُلِ : اللَّهُمَّ لَقِّنِّي حُجَّةَ الْإِيمَانِ عِنْدَ الْمَمَاتِ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِيهِ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ وَفِيهِ كَلَامٌ وَفِيهِ السَّكَنُ بْنُ أَبِي كَرِعَةَ وَلَمْ أَعْرِفْهُ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Let none of you ever say: 'O Allah! Prompt me with my argument,' for the disbeliever is prompted with his argument. Rather, a person should say: 'O Allah! Prompt me with the argument of faith at the time of death.'"
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains Ibn Lahi'ah, who has been criticised. Its chain also contains al-Sakan bin Abi Kari'ah, and I do not know him.
