Chapter: When martyrdom is hoped for

باب مَا يُرْجَى فِيهِ الشَّهَادَةُ
Sunan Ibn Majah 2803
It was
narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abdullah bin Jabir bin ‘Atik, from
his father, that his grandfather fell sick and the Prophet (ﷺ) came
to visit him. One of his family members said:
“We hoped that when
he died it would be as a martyr in the cause of Allah.” The
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “In that case the martyrs of my
nation would be few. Being killed in the cause of Allah is martyrdom;
dying of the plague is martyrdom; when a pregnant woman dies in
childbirth that is martyrdom; and dying of drowning, or burning, or
of pleurisy, is martyrdom.”
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعُمَيْسِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَتِيكٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّهُ مَرِضَ فَأَتَاهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُهُ فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ إِنْ كُنَّا لَنَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونَ وَفَاتُهُ قَتْلَ شَهَادَةٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" إِنَّ شُهَدَاءَ أُمَّتِي إِذًا لَقَلِيلٌ الْقَتْلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ شَهَادَةٌ وَالْمَطْعُونُ شَهَادَةٌ وَالْمَرْأَةُ تَمُوتُ بِجُمْعٍ شَهَادَةٌ - يَعْنِي الْحَامِلَ - وَالْغَرِقُ وَالْحَرِقُ وَالْمَجْنُوبُ - يَعْنِي ذَاتَ الْجَنْبِ - شَهَادَةٌ " .
