“There are five things, whoever dies of any of them is a martyr. The one who is killed in the cause of Allah is a martyr; the one who dies of an abdominal complaint in the cause of Allah is a martyr; the one who dies of the plague in the cause of Allah is a martyr; and the woman who dies in childbirth in the cause of Allah is a martyr.”
“The martyrs and those who dies in their beds referred a dispute to our Lord concerning those who dies of the plague. The martyrs said: ‘Our brothers were killed as we were killed.’ And those who dies in their beds said: ‘Our brothers dies on their beds as we died.’ Our Lord said: ‘Look at their wounds; if their wounds; if their wounds are like the wounds of those who were killed then they are of them and belong with them.’ And their wounds were like their (the martyrs’) wounds.”
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) never touched the hand of woman, but he received the oath of allegiance from her. When he received the oath of allegiance from her, she gave it to him, and he said: Go, I have received your oath of allegiance.
“It was said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, what equals Jihad?’ He said: ‘Verily, you (people) are not capable of it.’ So they repeated it to him two or three times, each time he said, ‘You (people) are not capable of it.’ Then he said the third time: ‘The example of the Mujahid in the path of Allah is like the one who fasts and stands (in prayer) and does not slacken from Salat, nor fasting, until the Mujahid in the cause of Allah returns.'” There are narrations on this topic from Ash-Shifa’, ‘Abdullah bin Hubshi, Abu Musa’, Abu Sa’eed, Umm Malik Al-Bahziyyah, and Anas. This Hadith is a Hasan Sahih. And it has been reported through more than one route from Abu Hurairah from the Prophet (ﷺ).
“I have to offer a sacrifice and I can afford it, but I cannot find (a camel) to buy.” The Prophet (ﷺ) told him to buy seven sheep and slaughter them.
