Abu Hurayra (may Allaah be pleased with him) "The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) gave me his sandals and said, Take away these sandals of mine, and when you meet anyone outside this garden who testifies that there is no god but Allaah, being assured of it in his heart, give him the good news that he shall go to Paradise " (Muslim)
