EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Abu Saeed tells us that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) encouraged people to remind their dying ones of the importance of saying La ilaha illallah, which is known as the shahada. This is a statement of faith in Islam and it means “there is none worthy of worship except Allah”. It is important for Muslims to remember this statement and recite it often, especially when they are about to die. By reminding those who are close to death about this statement, we can help them make sure that they will be able to enter Paradise after death. This hadith also teaches us that we should always be mindful of our faith and strive towards righteousness in our lives so that we can be prepared for death when it comes.
