3165. It was narrated from 'Uqbah bin 'Âmir that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "There are five things, whoever dies of any of them is a martyr. The one who is killed in the cause of Allâh is a martyr; the one who drowns in the cause of Allâh is a martyr; the one who dies of an abdominal complaint in the cause of Allâh is a martyr; the one who dies of the plague in the cause of Allâh is a martyr; and the woman who dies in childbirth in the cause of Allâh is a martyr." (Sahih)

Arabic text

3163 - أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ حُجَيْرَةَ، يُخْبِرُ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " خَمْسٌ مَنْ قُبِضَ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْهُنَّ فَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ: الْمَقْتُولُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْغَرِقُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْمَبْطُونُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْمَطْعُونُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالنُّفَسَاءُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ شَهِيدٌ "

Commentary

In this narration, for every martyr, the condition of being 'in the cause of Allâh' has been laid down, while in other narrations such a condition does not exist.
