 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ سَیْفٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لَقِّنُوا مَوْتَاکُمْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَإِنَّهَا تَهْدِمُ الذُّنُوبَ فَقَالُوا یَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَنْ قَالَ فِی صِحَّتِهِ فَقَالَ ذَاکَ أَهْدَمُ وَ أَهْدَمُ إِنَّ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أُنْسٌ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ فِی حَیَاتِهِ وَ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ وَ حِینَ یُبْعَثُ.
3.  The  Messenger  of  Allah  (s.a.w.s.)  said:  Prompt  your departed ones to say: ‘There is no god except Allah’ for it erases  the  sins.  So  they  asked:  O  Messenger  of  Allah (s.a.w.s.),  what  if  one  recites  this  when  one  is  healthy (alive)? The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) replied, “This (utterance) destroys  the  sins  and  finishes  them  off  in  any  condition. Indeed  “There  is  no  God  except  Allah”  is  a  friend  and helper of man in life in death and in raising after death. The Messenger  of  Allah  (s.a.w.s.)  also  said:  Jibraeel  said:  O Muhammad! You shall see them when they are raised with shining countenances those who used to chant: There is no God except Allah and Allah is the greatest.” And those shall be black faced who used to say: “Woe be to you, you are ruined!”
