Did You Know The Virtue of A Martyr (One killed in The Cause of Allaah?) Allah asks us in the Quran: And what is wrong with you that you fight not in the Cause of Allah, and for those weak ill-treated and oppressed among men, women, and children, whose cry is: Our Lord! Rescue us from this town whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from You one who will protect, and raise for us from You one who will help. (4:75) Allah also commands: Fight against them so that Allah will punish them by your hands and disgrace them and give you victory over them and heal the breasts of a believing people (9:14) We (and no one else) must protect our women and children. Why should we cower away from this duty laid upon us by Allah? We should rejoice in our opportunity to punish the kafirs and achieve the high station of honor Allah has place on the Mujahid. There are so many rewards for the Mujahid they are difficult to count. However there are seven (7) special things given to the martyr and no one else by Allah: 1. All his sins are forgiven from the first drop of their blood 2. He is saved from the punishment of the grave 3. He will cross the sirat with the speed of light (the sirat is the bridge that crosses over the Hell fire that every Muslim has to cross on Judgment Day; some will make it and some will fall). 4. He will receive seventy-two (72) women of Paradise 5. He are given a special crown and garment in the Paradise so all will recognize him as a martyr 6. He will be given the honor of interceding (with the permission of Allah) for 70 seventy members of his family 7. His soul will be kept in the bodies of green birds to fly around in the Paradise The Mujahid on the battlefield is in the safest position possible because the one who fights physically for the sake of Allah does not die. This is the closest thing that Allah has given the Children of Adam to immortality. Allah has instructed us not to even entertain the thought that the one who fights for the sake of Allah is dead. Allah says (what has been translated as): Think not of those who are killed in the Way of Allah as dead. Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they have provision. They rejoice in what Allah has bestowed upon them of His Bounty, rejoicing for the sake of those who have not yet joined them,but are left behind (not yet martyred) that on them no fear shall come, nor shall they grieve. (Quran 3:169-70). In a Hadith the Messenger of Allah explains that the souls of the martyrs are in the hearts of green birds that fly wherever they please in the Paradise. Also, the Mujahid does not feel any pain with death. Narrated by at-Tirmidhi, the prophet of Allah (pbuh) has stated: The martyr feels not the pain of killing except like a pinch
