‘Ali Ibn Abee Talib t
related that he heard the Messenger of Allah r
say: ‘If a man calls on his sick Muslim brother
it is as if he walks
reaping the fruits of Paradise until he sits
and when he sits he is
showered in mercy
and if this was in the morning
seventy thousand
angles send prayers upon him until the evening
and if this was in the
evening
seventy thousand angles send prayers upon him until the
morning.’
AAaishah related that the
Prophet r
(during his illness in which he passed away) would dip his hands in
water and then he would wipe his face and say:
‘None has the right to be worshipped
except Allah
death does indeed contain agony.’
AAaishah (R) related that the
Prophet (S) (during his illness in which he passed away) would dip his
hands in water and then he would wipe his face and say:

جعل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم عند موته يدخل يديه في الماء فيمسح بهما وجهه
ويقول: لا إِلَهََ
إِلاَّ اللَّهُ،
إِنَّ لِلمَوْتِ لَسَكَرَات.ٍ
(144)

except Allah and Allah is the greatest.None has the right
to be worshipped except Allah
alone.None has the right to be
worshipped except Allah

without partner.None has the
right to be worshipped except Allah
to Him belongs all
sovereignty and praise. None has the right to be worshipped except Allah
and there is no might and no power except with Allah.’
