Hadith 2799

حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي بَحِيرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ ، عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِ يكَرِبَ ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " لِلشَّهِيدِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عز وجل سِتُّ خِصَالٍ : يَغْفِرُ لَهُ فِي أَوَّلِ دُفْعَةٍ مِنْ دَمِهِ ، وَيُرَى مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ ، وَيُجَارُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ ، وَيَأْمَنُ مِنَ الْفَزَعِ الْأَكْبَرِ ، وَيُحَلَّى حُلَّةَ الْإِيمَانِ ، وَيُزَوَّجُ مِنَ الْحُورِ الْعِينِ ، وَيُشَفَّعُ فِي سَبْعِينَ إِنْسَانًا مِنْ أَقَارِبِهِ " .
´It was narrated from Miqdam bin Ma’dikarib that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:` “The martyr has six things (in store) with Allah: He is forgiven from the first drop of his blood that is shed; he is shown his place in Paradise; he is spared the torment of the grave; he is kept safe from the Great Fright; he is adorned with a garment of faith; he is married to (wives) from among the wide-eyed houris; and he is permitted to intercede for seventy of his relatives.”

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:


These rewards are for that martyr who is martyred while fighting in jihad with sincerity of heart solely for the pleasure of Allah.


Being shown a house in Paradise is glad tidings for him, that even during the moment of the soul’s departure, before entering Paradise, he is given the good news of Paradise.


The punishment of the grave for sinners is established by many ahadith.
The martyr is protected from it.


On the Day of Resurrection, sinners will be distressed according to their respective sins.
The martyr’s sins will have been forgiven, so he will be safe from distress.


Two garments of the same kind are called a hulah (set).
The hulah of faith refers to such a garment that will be a sign of his faith.


The houris are those women of Paradise whom Allah Ta’ala has created in Paradise by His perfect power for His righteous servants.
Every martyr will receive at least two houris.


On the Day of Resurrection, intercession will only be possible after permission is granted by Allah Ta’ala; this will be a means of forgiveness for sinners,
and a great honor for the one interceding.


The higher the rank of a believer, the more people he will be permitted to intercede for.
And Allah knows best.
