Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " يَضْحَكُ اللهُ إِلَى رَجُلَيْنِ يَقْتُلُ أَحَدُهُمَا الْآخَرَ، كِلَاهُمَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ، يُقَاتِلُ هَذَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَيُسْتَشْهَدُ "، قَالَ: " ثُمَّ يَتُوبُ اللهُ عَلَى قَاتِلِهِ فَيُسْلِمُ، فَيُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ حَتَّى يُسْتَشْهَدَ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Allah Almighty smiles at two men, one of whom killed the other, but both of them enter Paradise. The explanation of this is that one man was a disbeliever; he martyred a Muslim, but before his own death, that disbeliever also accepted Islam, and Allah Almighty granted both of them entry into Paradise.
