Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
The martyrs
are of five kinds: One who dies of plague; one who dies of disease of his belly; the drowned; one who dies under the
debris (of construction, etc.), and one who dies while fighting in the way of Allah
.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
The Hadith mentioned four categories of people, besides those who were slain on the battlefield,
whom Allah will, by His Special Grace, give on the Day of Judgement an award similar to martyrs on condition that
they are true believers and practising Muslims. In some other Ahadith, certain other persons have also been
mentioned who will be given the status of martyrs by Allah. There is no contradiction in these Ahadith for the
reason that first of all the Prophet (PBUH) was told about five categories of martyrs which were disclosed by him.
Subsequently Almighty Allah added some more people to them which were also mentioned by him. The real
Shaheed is one who voluntarily gives his life for the sake of Allah provided that he wholeheartedly fights on the
battlefield.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
Whom do
you reckon to be martyr amongst you?
'' The Companions replied: "The one who is killed in Allah's way.'' He said,
"
In that case, the martyrs among my people would be few
.'' The Companions asked: "O Messenger of Allah! Then
who are the martyrs?'' He replied, "
He who is killed in the way of Allah is a martyr; he who dies naturally in the
Cause of Allah is a martyr; he who dies of plague is a martyr; and he who dies of a belly disease is a martyr; and he
who is drowned is a martyr.
''
[Muslim].
This Hadith shows the care Allah has for this Ummah, which is the best Ummah of mankind. (
Editor's Note
)
Commentary:
"
He who dies naturally in the Cause of Allah
'', here signifies such a person who does not die because
of his being killed in the war by sword, lance, bullet, etc., but meets the death on account of some other causes while
going for Jihad such as falling from the horse, or who dies while defending his family or property, or defending
other Muslims against attackers or robbers, etc. Such a person will also be a martyr.

said, "
He who is killed while defending his property is a marty

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
The Hadith highlights the fact that whoever gets killed in an effort to protect his property is a martyr.
