374 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الزِّبْرَقَانِ الْأَهْوَازِيُّ أَبُو هَمَّامٍ قَالَ: ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ، عَنْ هَصَّانِ بْنِ كَاهِلٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ نَفْسٍ تَمُوتُ تَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ يَرْجِعُ ذَلِكَ إِلَي قَلْبٍ مُوقِنٍ إِلَّا غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ»
