وقد أخرج الطبراني وغيره من حديث معاذ بن جبل قال آخر كلام فارقت عليه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم
أن قلت له: أي الأعمال أحب إلى الله، قال: “أن تموت ولسانك رطب من ذكر الله”
Hazrat Mu’adh bin Jabal (RA) said that the last words I heard from the Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) were, when I asked him: Which deeds are most favoured by Allah, He said: “To die and your tongue is moist with remembrance of Allah.” [Tabarani]
. . . .
This Hadith highlights the importance of engaging in Zikrullah at all times.
Instead of futile and indecent talks one should engage in Zikrullah.
When a person is going to making the Zikr of Allah, in abundance, with dedication and Yaqeen (conviction) in Allah Subhaanahu Wa Ta’ala … then the Noor of that Zikr is going to settle into his heart and move into every part of his body …
And then ….
When he will “see”, he will refrain from Haraam and look at “Halaal” only …
When he will “touch”, he will refrain from Haraam and he will touch Halaal only …
He will “walk” towards Halaal only and not towards Haraam …
His “thoughts” will be of that which is permissible and Halaal …
All this is because of the effect of Zikrullah!
So, the more Zikr a person makes, the more Noor permeates into his body, and this will enable him to do righteous and good actions throughout his life . . . till his Maut (death).
May Allah Ta’ala give us Taufeeq and Hidayat to make Amal.
