The answer

What has been mentioned about the man and people testifying to his goodness is a good sign and an indication of a good ending. For in the : "You are Allah’s witnesses on earth," and "If Allah intends good for a servant, He uses him," meaning He enables him to perform a righteous deed before his death, then takes his soul while he is upon it. It is mentioned that whoever dies after fasting , or after performing Hajj or , Paradise becomes obligatory for him. Likewise, whoever says "There is no god but Allah," or gives charity seeking Allah's countenance, or fasts a day seeking Allah's countenance, and then his life is sealed with it, he will enter Paradise.
