Silsilah as-Sahihah 1741 — Children of the Ummah are witnesses to good

Muhammad bin Ziyad Al-Hani says: When the people who possess the ruling of martyrdom were mentioned in the presence of Abu ‘Unbah Khawlani, those present mentioned people who died from abdominal illness, those who died from plague, and women who died during childbirth. But Abu ‘Unbah became angry and said: The noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) narrated to us from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: “Allah's martyrs on earth are those who are Allah's trustworthy ones among His creation, whether they are killed or die a natural death.”
