Hadith on Tawhid: Noble status of sincere monotheism

‘Iyad al-Ansari reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, the declaration, ‘There is no God but Allah,’ has a noble status with Allah. It is a word that whoever says it honestly, Allah will admit him into Paradise. Whoever says it falsely, his life is protected and his property is safeguarded, but He will meet Allah tomorrow to be held accountable.”

عَنْ عِيَاضٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ كَلِمَةٌ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَرِيمَةٌ لَهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَكَانٌ وَهِيَ كَلِمَةٌ مَنْ قَالَهَا صَادِقًا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ وَمَنْ قَالَهَا كَاذِبًا حَقَنَتْ دَمَهُ وَأَحْرَزَتْ مَالَهُ وَلَقِيَ اللَّهَ غَدًا فَحَاسَبَهُ
