4 تشھّد اَلتَّحِيَّاتُ ِ للهِ وَالصَّلَوَاتُ وَالطَّيِّبَاتُ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ وَرَحْمَتُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُه ، 75 *

5 تشھّد... اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَىٰ عِبَادِ اللهِ الصَّالِحِينَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَّ إِلـٰـهَ إِلاَّ الله ُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُه ، وَرَسُولُه ،

6 Bringing La-ilaha Illallah in our life! How many times did I make my nafs as my Ilaah (god), i.e., do I obey it? Why is it happening? Bad friends? Bad gadgets? Bad habits? Plan accordingly. Be with good people. O Allah! Help me worship you only! Propagate the message to billions of non-Muslims.

7 While saying لا إله إلاّ الله Remember the death "He whose last words are: `La ilaha illallah' (There is no true god except Allah) will enter Jannah.'‘ [Abu Dawud]. "Exhort your dying men to recite: `La ilaha illallah' (There is no true god except Allah).'‘ [Muslim].

8 Stories An emergency doctor in an Arab Muslim country saw more than 10 dying in front of him (in his career). Only 1 or 2 recited Kalimah. A son told his dying father, “Dad, Say Lailaha Illallah.” Father said: Son, I want to say it but I am not able to!” A girl (accident victim) when asked to say Lailaha illallah did not respond. But after a while started singing with a low voice and then died.

Suppose, if in an accident, someone’s eyes gets shattered to 78,000 pieces and the doctor says: “Here are the pieces, just pick them up, put them in the eye socket, and you will get your sight back.” Imagine with what love and enthusiasm, he will pick them? We are blind and deaf (as we read Qur’an). These exercises give us the ‘sight’ to know what Allah says! Do these grammar practices with love.
