Hadith on Shirk: Whoever dies calling upon a partner with Allah

Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, made a statement and I made another in his presence. The Prophet said, “Whoever dies while calling upon a partner besides Allah will enter the Hellfire.” I said, “Whoever dies without calling upon a partner besides Allah will enter Paradise.”

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَلِمَةً وَقُلْتُ أُخْرَى قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ مَاتَ وَهْوَ يَدْعُو مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ نِدًّا دَخَلَ النَّارَ وَقُلْتُ أَنَا مَنْ مَاتَ وَهْوَ لَا يَدْعُو لِلَّهِ نِدًّا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ
