عَنْ أَنَسٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا تَرَكْتُ حَاجَّةً وَلَا دَاجَّةً إِلَّا قَدْ أَتَيْتُ، قَالَ: «أَلَيْسَ تَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ؟» ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ. قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ يَأْتِي عَلَى ذَلِكَ».
Imepokelewa kutoka kwa Anas -Radhi za Mwenyezi Mungu ziwe ju yake- amesema: Alikuja mtu mmoja kwa Mtume -Rehema na amani ziwe juu yake-akasema: Ewe Mtume wa Mwenyezi Mungu, mimi sijaacha dhambi yoyote wala maasi yoyote isipokuwa nimeyafanya, akasema: "Hivi wewe hautamki neno la shahada "Ash-hadu an-laa ilaaha illa llahu wa anna Muhamadan rasuulullah?" Akarudia mara tatu. Akasema: Ndiyo, akasema: "Kwa hakika tamko hilo hufuta makosa hayo yote."
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man came to the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I left no minor or major sin without committing it." He said: "Do you not testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah?" He repeated the question three times. He replied: 'Yes.' The Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This prevails over that."
Utukufu wa shahada mbili na namna inavyoyashinda madhambi kwa yule atakayesema maneno hayo kwa dhati kutoka moyoni mwake.
Uislamu hufuta makosa yaliyopita huko nyuma.
Tauba ya kweli hufuta makosa yaliyopita huko nyuma.
Kurudia rudia katika kujifunza ni miongoni mwa miongozo ya bwana Mtume -Rehema na amani ziwe juu yake-.
Utukufu wa shahada mbili, na kuwa shahada mbili ni sababu ya kuepuka kukaa Motoni milele.
