حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ عَنْ مَوْلًى لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ بَخٍ بَخٍ لِخَمْسٍ
مَا أَثْقَلَهُنَّ فِي الْمِيزَانِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَالْوَلَدُ الصَّالِحُ يُتَوَفَّى فَيَحْتَسِبُهُ وَالِدُهُ وَقَالَ بَخٍ بَخٍ لِخَمْسٍ مَنْ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مُسْتَيْقِنًا بِهِنَّ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَبِالْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ وَبِالْبَعْثِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَالْحِسَابِ

English Translation
ʿAffān narrated to us, Abān narrated to us, Yaḥyā ibn Abī Kathīr narrated to us, from Zayd, from Abū Sallām, from a freed slave of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'How excellent, how excellent are five things — how heavy they are on the Scale: lā ilāha illallāh, Allāhu akbar, subḥānallāh, al-ḥamdu lillāh, and a righteous child who dies and his parent seeks reward for him.' And he said: 'How excellent, how excellent are five things. Whoever meets Allāh عز وجل firmly believing in them will enter Paradise: believing in Allāh and the Last Day, in Paradise and the Fire, and in the resurrection after death and the reckoning.'
