Signs of a good END.

As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullah

 

The Prophet, salaallaahu `alayhi wa sallam said, A Muslim who is killed in a battle is a martyr, (dying in) plague is artyrdom, a woman who dies while delivering a baby is a martyr. [Ahmad, Daarimee, Tiyaalisee, authenticated by Al-Albaanee]

 

The Prophet, salaallaahu `alayhi wa sallam said, The martyrs are seven, other than the one who is killed in the Way of Allaah, ta`aalaa:

 

- One who dies of plague,

- one who drowns,

- one who dies of pleurisy,

- one who dies of stomach ache,

- one who dies due to burning

- one who dies under a demolition (by accident)

- a woman who dies with a baby in her womb

 

[Maalik, Aboo Dawood, An-Nasaaee, Ibn Maajah, Ibn Hibban, Haakim, Ahmad. Authenticated by al-Albaanee]

 

The Prophet, salaallaahu `alayhi wa sallam said:

 

- "Getting killed in the Path of Allaah ta`aalaa is martyrdom,

- [death in] confinement during childbirth is martyrdom,

- [death by] getting burned [by accident] is martyrdom,

- [death by] drowning [by accident] is martyrdom,

- [death due to] tuberculosis is martyrdom,

- [death due to] stomach ache is martyrdom."

 

[Tabaraanee, Ahmad, authenticated by al-Albaanee]

Interesting Hadeeth.

I wonder how dying from plague, stomach ache and pleurisy leads to martyrdom? There are hundreds of things that cause stomach ache or pleurisy, so which one could specifically lead to martyrdom?

And if this means scale of suffering, I could think of other diseases that cause more suffering than above mentioned ones. Can someone elaborate please.

On the other hand these may had been mysterious and terminal diseases with poor prognosis that had no Cure but now are easily treatable. Do you think time and place play factor?

 

Just a thought
