ahmad:22784ʿAbdullāh > Abū Baḥr ʿAbd al-Wāḥid b. Ghiyāth > Ḥammād b. Salamah > Abū Sinān > Yaʿlá b. Shaddād > ʿUbādah b. al-Ṣāmit

[Machine] I heard Ubada bin As-Samit saying that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ singled out a group of his companions and asked them, "Do you know who from my Nation are the martyrs?" They remained silent, so Ubada asked the Prophet ﷺ to inform them. The Prophet ﷺ said, "The one who is killed in the cause of Allah is a martyr, the one who dies due to the plague is a martyr, the one who dies due to stomach disease is a martyr, and the woman who dies while giving birth and her child pulls her with him to Paradise is a martyr."  

أحمد:٢٢٧٨٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَحْرٍ عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ شَدَّادٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ الصَّامِتِ يَقُولُ عَادَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَنِ الشُّهَدَاءُ مِنْ أُمَّتِي؟ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا فَسَكَتُوا فَقَالَ عُبَادَةُ أَخْبِرْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ الْقَتِيلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ شَهِيدٌ وَالْمَبْطُونُ شَهِيدٌ وَالْمَطْعُونُ شَهِيدٌ وَالنُّفَسَاءُ شَهِيدٌ يَجُرُّهَا وَلَدُهَا بِسُرَرِهِ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ
