حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ
عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَتِيكٍ ، عَنْ
عَتِيكِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ وَهُوَ جَدُّ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَابِرٍ أَبُو أُمِّهِ ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ
جَابِرَ بْنَ عَتِيكٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَ يَعُودُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ فَوَجَدَهُ قَدْ غُلِبَ عَلَيْهِ فَصَاحَ بِهِ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ ، فَاسْتَرْجَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ : " غُلِبْنَا عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا الرَّبِيعِ " فَصَاحَ النِّسْوَةُ وَبَكَيْنَ فَجَعَلَ جَابِرٌ يُسَكِّتُهُنَّ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " دَعْهُنَّ فَإِذَا وَجَبَ فَلَا تَبْكِيَنَّ بَاكِيَةٌ " ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَمَا الْوُجُوبُ ؟ قَالَ : " إِذَا مَاتَ " ، فَقَالَتِ ابْنَتُهُ : وَاللَّهِ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونَ شَهِيدًا ، فَإِنَّكَ كُنْتَ قَدْ قَضَيْتَ جِهَازَكَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَوْقَعَ أَجْرَهُ عَلَى قَدْرِ نِيَّتِهِ وَمَا تَعُدُّونَ الشَّهَادَةَ " ، قَالُوا : الْقَتْلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :
" الشُّهَدَاءُ سَبْعَةٌ سِوَى الْقَتْلِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، الْمَطْعُونُ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالْغَرِقُ شَهِيدٌ ، وَصَاحِبُ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالْمَبْطُونُ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالْحَرِقُ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالَّذِي يَمُوتُ تَحْتَ الْهَدْمِ شَهِيدٌ ، وَالْمَرْأَةُ تَمُوتُ بِجُمْعٍ شَهِيدٌ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Atik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to visit Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) and saw him in the severity of illness. So the Prophet (peace be upon him) called out to him, but he did not reply. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) said «إِنَّا لِلّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُوْنَ» and said: "We have been overcome by you, O Abu Rabi'!" Then the women began to cry loudly, and Sayyiduna Jabir bin Atik (may Allah be pleased with him) started to silence them. So the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Let the women cry for now; when the event occurs, then no weeping woman should cry." A female companion asked: "What is meant by 'when the event occurs'?" He replied: "When he dies." Meanwhile, the daughter of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I had hoped that you would be martyred because you had prepared the equipment for jihad." So the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Allah, the Glorious and Exalted, will grant him reward according to his intention. What do you consider as martyrdom?" They replied: "Being killed in the way of Allah, the Glorious and Exalted." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Besides this, there are seven more martyrs: one who dies of plague, the second who dies by drowning, the third who dies of pleurisy, the fourth who dies of a stomach ailment, the fifth who dies by burning in fire, the sixth who dies by being crushed, and the seventh is the woman who dies during childbirth."
