ahmad:14490 – Abū al-Naḍr > Sharīk > ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad b. ʿAqīl > Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet and said, "O Messenger of Allah, if I fight with my own self and my wealth and I am killed while being patient, hoping for reward, and facing the enemy without turning my back, will I enter Paradise?" The Prophet said, "Yes." The man repeated his question two or three times, and each time the Prophet replied, "Yes, if you do not die and you have a debt that you have not yet paid off."  

أحمد:١٤٤٩٠ – حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ أَخْبَرَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ جَاهَدْتُ بِنَفْسِي وَمَالِي فَقُتِلْتُ صَابِرًا مُحْتَسِبًا مُقْبِلًا غَيْرَ مُدْبِرٍ أَأَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَعَادَ ذَلِكَ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنْ لَمْ تَمُتْ وَعَلَيْكَ دَيْنٌ لَيْسَ عِنْدَكَ وَفَاؤُهُ
