English translation

2499. It was reported that Abū Mālik Al-Ash'arī said: "I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'The one who goes forth in the cause of Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime, and dies or is killed, then he is a martyr, or he is thrown by the horse or camel and breaks his neck, or any poisonous creature stings him, or dies on his bed, or dies with any other means as Allāh wills: Then he is a martyr, and Paradise is for him.'” (Da'if)

Arabic text

2499 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنِ ابْنِ ثَوْبَانَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، يَرُدُّ إِلَى مَكْحُولٍ، إِلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غُنْمٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ، أَنَّ أَبَا مَالِكٍ الْأَشْعَرِيَّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ فَصَلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَمَاتَ، أَوْ قُتِلَ فَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ، أَوْ وَقَصَهُ فَرَسُهُ، أَوْ بَعِيرُهُ أَوْ لَدَغَتْهُ هَامَّةٌ، أَوْ مَاتَ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ، أَوْ بِأَيِّ حَتْفٍ شَاءَ اللَّهُ، فَإِنَّهُ شَهِيدٌ، وَإِنَّ لَهُ الْجَنَّةَ»
