وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، أَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ:
« أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ اللهَ حَقٌّ، وَأَنَّ لِقَاءَهُ حَقٌّ، وَأَنَّ السَّاعَةَ حَقٌّ، وَأَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ حَقٌّ، وَأَنَّ النَّارَ حَقٌّ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ، وَمِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، وَمِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ

✧ I bear witness that Allah is true, that meeting Him is true, that the Hour is true, that Paradise is true, and that the Fire is true. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the trial of life and death, from the punishment of the grave, and from the punishment of Hell.
