عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ إِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَقُولُوا مَاتَ فُلَانٌ شَهِيدٌ أَوْ قُتِلَ فُلَانٌ شَهِيدٌ فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ يُقَاتِلُ لِيَغْنَمَ وَيُقَاتِلُ لِيُذْكَرَ وَيُقَاتِلُ لِيُرَى مَكَانُهُ فَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ شَاهِدِينَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَاشْهَدُوا لِلرَّهْطِ الَّذِينَ بَعَثَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَقُتِلُوا فَقَالُوا اللَّهُمَّ بَلِّغْ نَبِيَّنَا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنَّا أَنَّا قَدْ لَقِينَاكَ فَرَضِينَا عَنْكَ وَرَضِيتَ عَنَّا
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Refrain from saying such things as “So-and-so’s death is martyrdom,” or “So-and-so has become a martyr,” because some people fight for the sake of spoils, some fight for fame, and some fight so that their status may be known. If you must bear witness, then bear witness of martyrdom only for those people whom the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent in a military expedition and they were killed, and before being killed they said: “O Allah! Convey this message from us to our Prophet, that we have met You and we are pleased with You and You are pleased with us.”
