wa alaikumu salam,
May Allah reward sister Muslimah for her response on the news about the sick brother. I wish to inform all that Allah{swt} took the brother to himself on Saturday 14th June, 2003, and he was buried on 15th :cry: . He was 38 years old with 4 kids, all boys, and a wife.
The only consolation for us, his friends, was that he pronounced the kalimatu shahadah just before responding to the call of death.
The question that we should work on henceforth is: from my past till now, can the way I lead my life guarantee me the shahadah at the point of the certainty{death}? I.e. should I die today, will I be able to say the kalimah at the point of death?
This is only a reminder.
ma'a salam.
