Chapter: The Virtue Of One Who Dies Of The Plague.
Hadith 3111
حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَتِيكٍ ، عَنْ عَتِيكِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَتِيكٍ وَهُوَ جَدُّ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَبُو أُمِّهِ ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ عَمَّهُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَتِيكٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَ يَعُودُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ ، فَوَجَدَهُ قَدْ غُلِبَ ، فَصَاحَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ ، فَاسْتَرْجَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَقَالَ : " غُلِبْنَا عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا الرَّبِيعِ ، فَصَاحَ النِّسْوَةُ وَبَكَيْنَ ، فَجَعَلَ ابْنُ عَتِيكٍ يُسَكِّتُهُنَّ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : دَعْهُنَّ ، فَإِذَا وَجَبَ فَلَا تَبْكِيَنَّ بَاكِيَةٌ ، قَالُوا : وَمَا الْوُجُوبُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : الْمَوْتُ ، قَالَتِ ابْنَتُهُ : وَاللَّهِ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونَ شَهِيدًا ، فَإِنَّكَ كُنْتَ قَدْ قَضَيْتَ جِهَازَكَ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ أَوْقَعَ أَجْرَهُ عَلَى قَدْرِ نِيَّتِهِ ، وَمَا تَعُدُّونَ الشَّهَادَةَ ؟ قَالُوا : الْقَتْلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : الشَّهَادَةُ سَبْعٌ ، سِوَى الْقَتْلِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ : الْمَطْعُونُ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالْغَرِقُ شَهِيدٌ ، وَصَاحِبُ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالْمَبْطُونُ شَهِيدٌ ، وَصَاحِبُ الْحَرِيقِ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالَّذِي يَمُوتُ تَحْتَ الْهَدْمِ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالْمَرْأَةُ تَمُوتُ بِجُمْعٍ شَهِيدٌ " .
Narrated Jabir ibn Atik: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to visit Abdullah ibn Thabit who was ill. He found that he was dominated (by the divine decree). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him loudly, but he did not respond. He uttered the Quranic verse "We belong to Allah and to Him do we return" and he said: We have been dominated against you, AburRabi. Then the women cried and wept, and Ibn Atik began to silence them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Leave them, when the divine decree is made, no woman should weep. They (the people) asked: What is necessary happening, Messenger of Allah? He replied: Death. His daughter said: I hope you will be a martyr, for you have completed your preparations for jihad. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Allah Most High gave him a reward according to his intentions. What do you consider martyrdom? They said: Being killed in the cause of Allah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There are seven types of martyrdom in addition to being killed in Allah's cause: one who dies of plague is a martyr; one who is drowned is a martyr; one who dies of pleurisy is a martyr; one who dies of an internal complaint is a martyr; one who is burnt to death is a martyr; who one is killed by a building falling on him is a martyr; and a woman who dies while pregnant is a martyr.
