اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ ، وبشر بن آدم ، قَالُوا : حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، أَنْبَأَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ ، عَنْ الْقَعْقَاعِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا يَجِدُ الشَّهِيدُ مِنَ الْقَتْلِ إِلَّا كَمَا يَجِدُ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنَ الْقَرْصَةِ " .
´It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:` “The martyr does not feel anything more when he is killed than one of you feels if he is pinched (by a bug).”

After that, various kinds of bliss and comfort are granted, to the extent that one even develops a desire to die again. O Allah! By Your grace and mercy, make death easy for us so that it may not even be felt like the bite of an ant.
