حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَضْحَكُ اللَّهُ إِلَى رَجُلَيْنِ قَتَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا الْآخَرَ كِلَاهُمَا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ، يُقَاتِلُ هَذَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَيُقْتَلُ، فَيُسْتَشْهَدُ، ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ اللَّهُ عَلَى هَذَا فَيُسْلِمُ فَيُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَيُقْتَلُ فَيُسْتَشْهَدُ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Allah laughs at two men, one of whom killed the other, yet both entered Paradise.

An Ansari, Ibn Qasam, said: “Bravo, bravo.” The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “What did you mean by saying ‘Bravo, bravo’?” He said: “O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him! If I enter Paradise, I will find spaciousness in it.” The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “Face the enemy and show truthfulness with Allah.” He threw away the dates he had in his hand and said: “Leaving the food of the world.” Then he kept fighting until he was martyred.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sulayman bin Aban (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) set out for Badr, both Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Khaythamah (may Allah be pleased with him) and his father wanted to go. This matter was reported to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so he said that one of the two should go. Lots were drawn, and Sa'd's name came out. The father said, "Son! Let me go." Sa'd replied, "This is Paradise; if it were any other matter, I would have given you preference." Then Sa'd set out with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and was martyred at Badr. Then Khaythamah was martyred the following year on the day of Uhud.
