2767. It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Whoever dies being prepared in the cause of Allāh, will be given continuously the reward for the good deeds that he used to do, and he will be rewarded with provision, and he will be kept safe from Fattān,[1] and Allāh will raise him on the Day of Resurrection free of fright." (Sahih)
2767 - حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ زُهْرَةَ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ مَاتَ مُرَابِطًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَجْرَى عَلَيْهِ أَجْرَ عَمَلِهِ الصَّالِحِ الَّذِي كَانَ يَعْمَلُ، وَأَجْرَى عَلَيْهِ رِزْقَهُ، وَأَمِنَ مِنَ الْفَتَّانِ، وَبَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ آمِنًا مِنَ الْفَزَعِ»

Being prepared, here implies being fully prepared for waging war on the borders, so that if war starts he participates immediately in the fight. Due to the pure intention, one gets the reward of the good deed even if he does not get the chance to do it.
