ahmad:23100Yazīd > Hishām b. Abū ʿAbdullāh al-Dastuwāʾī > Yaḥyá b. Abū Kathīr > Abū Sallām > a man

[Machine] He heard the Prophet ﷺ saying "Light, light for five things, how heavy they are in the balance!" A man asked, "What are they, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "There is no god but Allah, and Allah is the Greatest, and Glory be to Allah, and praise be to Allah, and a righteous child who dies and his parents bear it with patience." Five things from which the one who fears Allah with certainty will enter Paradise: bearing witness that there is no god but Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger, and having certainty in death, resurrection, and accountability.

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ بَخٍ بَخٍ لِخَمْسٍ مَا أَثْقَلَهُنَّ فِي الْمِيزَانِ قَالَ رَجُلٌ مَا هُنَّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ لَاإِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ وَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَالْوَلَدُ الصَّالِحُ يُتَوَفَّى فَيَحْتَسِبُهُ وَالِدُهُ خَمْسٌ مَنْ اتَّقَى اللهَ بِهِنَّ مُسْتَيْقِنًا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ مَنْ شَهِدَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَأَيْقَنَ بِالْمَوْتِ وَالْبَعْثِ وَالْحِسَابِ

[Machine] On the authority of a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , it is reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Bakh, bakh, for five things that will weigh heavily in the scales: There is no god but Allah, and Allah is the Greatest, and glory be to Allah, and praise be to Allah, and a righteous child who dies and their parents will hope for reward for them. And bakh, bakh, for five things: Whoever meets Allah with certainty in these, believing in Allah, the Last Day, Paradise and Hell, and the Resurrection after death and the Reckoning."

[Machine] Narrated by the servant of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "I swear by the One in Whose Hand is my soul, there are five words heavier in the scales than others: La ilaha illa Allah (There is no god but Allah), and Allah is the Greatest (Allahu Akbar), and Glory be to Allah (Subhan Allah), and Praise be to Allah (Alhamdulillah), and a righteous child who dies and his parents have patience and hope for reward (from Allah)." And he said: "I swear by the One in Whose Hand is my soul, whoever meets Allah, believing in these five, enters Paradise, believing in Allah, the Last Day, Paradise, Hell, and the Resurrection after death, and the Reckoning."

[Machine] Abu Salama, the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , narrated to me. I met him in the mosque of Al-Kufa, and he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Light, light,' and he gestured with his hand five times, as if indicating something lighter than them in the scale: Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah), Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah), La ilaha illa Allah (There is no deity but Allah), Allah Akbar (Allah is the Greatest), and the righteous child is taken by Allah from the believing person, and He admits him into Paradise.'"

[Machine] Abu Salma, the shepherd of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , narrated to me that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Congratulations! Congratulations! for five things that will be| weighed heavily on the scale on the Day of Judgment: There is no god but Allah, Allah is the Greatest, Glory be to Allah, praise be to Him, and the righteous offspring who passes away and the Muslim person hopes for reward (from Allah) for him."

"بَخٍ بَخٍ لِخَمْسٍ؛ مَا أثْقَلَهُنَّ في المِيزان: سُبْحَان اللهِ، وَالحَمْدُ للهِ، وَلَا إِلهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، واللهُ أكبَرُ، وَالوَلَدُ الصَّالِحُ يُتَوفَّى يَحْتَسِبُهُ وَالِدُهُ، وَخَمسٌ مَنْ لَقِى اللهَ بِهِنَّ مُسْتَيقِنًا بِهَا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الجَنَّةُ. مَنْ شَهِدَ أَن لَا إِلهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَأن مُحَمَّدًا عبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، وَأَيقَنَ بالموتِ، وَالحِسَابِ، وَالجَنَّةِ، وَالنَّارِ".
