I was informed that the Prophet (ﷺ) had said to Mu`adh, "Whosoever will meet Allah without associating
anything in worship with Him will go to Paradise." Mu`adh asked the Prophet, "Should I not inform
the people of this good news?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "No, I am afraid, lest they should depend upon it
(absolutely).

"Once Mu`adh was along with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as a companion rider. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "O Mu`adh
bin Jabal." Mu`adh replied, "Labbaik and Sa`daik. O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)!" Again the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O
Mu`adh!" Mu`adh said thrice, "Labbaik and Sa`daik, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)!" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "There
is none who testifies sincerely that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is
his Apostle, except that Allah, will save him from the Hell-fire." Mu`adh said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) !
Should I not inform the people about it so that they may have glad tidings?" He replied, "When the
people hear about it, they will solely depend on it." Then Mu`adh narrated the above-mentioned
Hadith just before his death, being afraid of committing sin (by not telling the knowledge).
