باب مَا يُعَدُّ مِنَ الشُّهَدَاءِ:Chapter: Who Counts as a Martyr
Hadith 2450
أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ، هُوَ: التَّيْمِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: "الطَّاعُونُ شَهَادَةٌ، وَالْغَرَقُ شَهَادَةٌ، وَالْغَزْوُ شَهَادَةٌ، وَالْبَطْنُ شَهَادَةٌ وَالنُّفَسَاءُ شَهَادَةٌ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Safwan bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Dying of plague is martyrdom, drowning (to death) is also martyrdom, dying while fighting in battle is martyrdom, dying of abdominal illness is martyrdom, and the death of women in postnatal bleeding is martyrdom.”
