وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " ثِنْتَانِ مُوجِبَتَانِ. قَالَ رَجُلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا الْمُوجِبَتَانِ؟ قَالَ: (مَنْ مَاتَ يُشْرِكُ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ النَّارَ وَمَنْ مَاتَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئا دخل الْجنَّة) (رَوَاهُ مُسلم)

Translation

Jabir, may God be pleased with him, reported that the Messenger of God said: “There are two things that determine the outcome.” A man asked, “Messenger of God, what are the two?” He replied, “Whoever dies associating anything with God will enter the Fire, and whoever dies associating nothing with God will enter Paradise.” Muslim narrated it.
