This is a story of a 105-years-old man from India, who spent his entire life in Sikhism, a religion that believes in a god called "Waheguru", but had a grand-son who always told him about Islam Islam. The old man had not yet decided to embrace Islam until when he became sick and in his last moments, he pronounced the shahada and became Muslim.
It is recommended in Islam to encourage the one who is sick or dying to repent and pronounce the shahada, if they are in a state in which they can be reminded of that. In other words, if they are still conscious. It is narrated in an authentic hadith, that Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings of Allah be upon him said, “A person whose last words are “La ilaha illallah” will enter Paradise.” (Abu Dawood, 3116)
