Jami at-Tirmidhi — Hadith 1663

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا نُعَيْمُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنْ بَحِيرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ، عَنْ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِي كَرِبَ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لِلشَّهِيدِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ سِتُّ خِصَالٍ : يُغْفَرُ لَهُ فِي أَوَّلِ دَفْعَةٍ ، وَيَرَى مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ ، وَيُجَارُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ ، وَيَأْمَنُ مِنَ الْفَزَعِ الْأَكْبَرِ ، وَيُوضَعُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ تَاجُ الْوَقَارِ الْيَاقُوتَةُ مِنْهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا ، وَيُزَوَّجُ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ زَوْجَةً مِنَ الْحُورِ الْعِينِ ، وَيُشَفَّعُ فِي سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَقَارِبِهِ " ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ .
Miqdam bin Ma’dikarib (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “There are six rewards for the martyr with Allah: (1) With the first drop of his blood, his sins are forgiven; (2) he sees his place in Paradise; (3) he is protected from the punishment of the grave; (4) «فزع الأكبر» (on the Day of Great Terror) he will be safe; (5) a crown of honor will be placed on his head, a single ruby of which is better than the world and all that is in it; (6) he will be married to seventy-two (72) heavenly maidens, and his intercession will be accepted for seventy of his relatives.” 1. © Imam Tirmidhi says: This hadith is hasan ghareeb.

Benefits and Issues:

➊
These rewards are for that martyr who is martyred while fighting in jihad with sincerity of heart solely for the pleasure of Allah.

➋
Being shown a house in Paradise is glad tidings for him, that even during the moment of the soul’s departure, before entering Paradise, he is given the good news of Paradise.

➌
The punishment of the grave for sinners is established by many ahadith.
The martyr is protected from it.

➍
On the Day of Resurrection, sinners will be distressed according to their respective sins.
The martyr’s sins will have been forgiven, so he will be safe from distress.

➎
Two garments of the same kind are called a hulah (set).
The hulah of faith refers to such a garment that will be a sign of his faith.

➏
The houris are those women of Paradise whom Allah Ta’ala has created in Paradise by His perfect power for His righteous servants.
Every martyr will receive at least two houris.

➐
On the Day of Resurrection, intercession will only be possible after permission is granted by Allah Ta’ala; this will be a means of forgiveness for sinners,
and a great honor for the one interceding.

➑
The higher the rank of a believer, the more people he will be permitted to intercede for.
And Allah knows best.
