اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ : " وَلا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَمْوَاتًا بَلْ أَحْيَاءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ يُرْزَقُونَ سورة آل عمران آية 169 ، فَقَالَ : أَمَا إِنَّا قَدْ سَأَلْنَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَأُخْبِرْنَا ، أَنَّ أَرْوَاحَهُمْ فِي طَيْرٍ خُضْرٍ تَسْرَحُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ حَيْثُ شَاءَتْ وَتَأْوِي إِلَى قَنَادِيلَ مُعَلَّقَةٍ بِالْعَرْشِ ، فَاطَّلَعَ إِلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ اطِّلَاعَةً ، فَقَالَ : هَلْ تَسْتَزِيدُونَ شَيْئًا فَأَزِيدُكُمْ ؟ قَالُوا : رَبَّنَا وَمَا نَسْتَزِيدُ وَنَحْنُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ نَسْرَحُ حَيْثُ شِئْنَا ، ثُمَّ اطَّلَعَ إِلَيْهِمُ الثَّانِيَةَ فَقَالَ : هَلْ تَسْتَزِيدُونَ شَيْئًا فَأَزِيدُكُمْ ؟ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا أَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُتْرَكُوا قَالُوا : تُعِيدُ أَرْوَاحَنَا فِي أَجْسَادِنَا حَتَّى نَرْجِعَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا فَنُقْتَلَ فِي سَبِيلِكَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى " ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
It is narrated from Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he was asked about the explanation of the verse «ولا تحسبن الذين قتلوا في سبيل الله أمواتا بل أحياء عند ربهم يرزقون», so he said: O people! Listen, we asked (the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him) about its explanation, and we were informed that the souls of the martyrs are in the form of green birds, roaming freely in Paradise wherever they wish, and in the evening they take shelter in lanterns hanging from the Throne. Once your Lord looked upon them and asked: "Is there anything you desire so that I may grant it to you?" They said: O Lord! We desire nothing more. We roam wherever we wish in Paradise. Then (one day) Allah looked upon them again and said: "Is there anything you desire so that I may grant it to you?" When they saw that (Allah was determined to give, and that) there was no escape without asking and receiving, they said: Return our souls to our bodies so that we may go back to the world and be killed again in Your path. © Imam Tirmidhi says:
This hadith is Hasan Sahih.
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ مِثْلَهُ ، وَزَادَ فِيهِ " وَتُقْرِئُ نَبِيَّنَا السَّلَامَ وَتُخْبِرُهُ عَنَّا أَنَّا قَدْ رَضِينَا وَرُضِيَ عَنَّا " ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ .
With this chain, Ibn Abi Umar narrated from Ibn Mas'ud in the same manner, but with the addition: "Convey our greetings to our Prophet and also inform him that we are pleased and content with our Lord, and He is pleased and content with us." © Imam Tirmidhi says:
This hadith is Hasan. (That is: according to the above chain, because there is a break in the other chain.)

Note:
(‘Ata bin as-Sa’ib is trustworthy (saduq) but a narrator who became confused (mukhtalit), and Abu ‘Ubaydah did not meet his father ‘Abdullah bin Mas‘ud.)

Ibn Majah — Hadith 2801
´It was narrated from ‘Abdullah concerning the Verse:` “Think not of those as dead who are killed in the way of Allah. Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they have provision,”[3:169] that he said: “We asked about that, and (the Prophet (ﷺ)) said: ‘Their souls are like green birds that fly wherever they wish in Paradise, then they come back to lamps suspended from the Throne. While they were like that, your Lord looked at them and said, “Ask me for whatever you want.” They said: “O Lord, what should we ask You for when we can fly wherever we wish in Paradise?” When they saw that they would not be left alone until they had asked for something, they said: “We ask You to return our souls to our bodies in the world so that we may fight for Your sake (again).” When He saw that they would not ask for anything but that, they were left alone.’”
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:

➊
Martyrs are admitted into Paradise before the Day of Resurrection.

➋
In the life of Barzakh, martyrs are given another body which is in the form of birds.

➌
After the Resurrection, like other inhabitants of Paradise, they will enjoy the blessings of Paradise with a human body.

➍
The souls of martyrs do not return to the world, nor are they granted worldly life again.

➎
The Throne of Allah (Arsh al-Ilahi) is above Paradise.
