Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
ASALATU WASALAMU ALAYKA YA RASULLALLAH
The tongue moist with the remembrance of Allah during death - Abdullah ibn Masud Radi Allahu anhu
Abdullah ibn Masud lived to the time of Khalifah Uthman Radi Allahu anhu , When he was sick and on his death-bed, Hazrat Uthman came to visit him and said:
"What is your ailment?"
"My sins."
"And what do you desire?"
"The mercy of my Lord."
"Shall I not give you your stipend which you have refused to take for years now?"
"I have no need of it."
"Let it be for your daughters after you."
"Do you fear poverty for my children? I have commanded them to read Surah al-Waqiah every night for I have heard the Prophet saying, "Whoever reads Al-Waqiah every night shall not be afflicted by poverty ever."
That night, Abdullah ibn Masud Radi Allahu anhu passed away to the company of his Lord, his tongue moist with the remembrance of God and with the recitation of the verses of Quraan Majeed.
