3164. Sahl bin Abî Umâmah bin Sahl bin Hunaif narrated from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Whoever asks Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, sincerely for martyrdom, Allâh will cause him to reach the status of the martyrs even of he dies in his bed." (Sahih)
3162 - أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ، أَنَّ سَهْلَ بْنَ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ سَأَلَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الشَّهَادَةَ بِصِدْقٍ، بَلَّغَهُ اللَّهُ مَنَازِلَ الشُّهَدَاءِ، وَإِنْ مَاتَ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ»

1. 'Sincerely': Not for just boastful showing off or eloquence, as is the common customary practice. 2. 'Whoever asks': This is not supplicating for death, but it is a supplication for an excellent death, whenever it might come. And this is desirable or commendable.
