حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْقُرَظِيِّ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " مَا تَعُدُّونَ الشَّهِيدَ؟ " قَالُوا: الَّذِي يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ حَتَّى يُقْتَلَ، قَالَ: " إِنَّ الشَّهِيدَ فِي أُمَّتِي إِذًا لَقَلِيلٌ، الْقَتِيلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالطَّعِينُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْغَرِيقُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْخَارُّ عَنْ دَابَّتِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْمَجْنُوبُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ شَهِيدٌ "، قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ: " الْمَجْنُوبُ صَاحِبُ الْجَنْبِ " (٣)، ،

English translation
It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) once asked the companions (may Allah be pleased with them), "Whom do you consider a 'martyr' among you?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "The one who is killed while fighting in the way of Allah." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If it is so, then the number of martyrs in my Ummah will be very few. Being killed in Jihad in the way of Allah is martyrdom, dying due to a stomach illness is also martyrdom, drowning in a river is also martyrdom, dying after falling from a mount is also martyrdom, and dying due to pleurisy is also martyrdom."
