حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعُمَيْسِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَتِيكٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّهُ مَرِضَ فَأَتَاهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُهُ فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ إِنْ كُنَّا لَنَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونَ وَفَاتُهُ قَتْلَ شَهَادَةٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ إِنَّ شُهَدَاءَ أُمَّتِي إِذًا لَقَلِيلٌ الْقَتْلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ شَهَادَةٌ وَالْمَطْعُونُ شَهَادَةٌ وَالْمَرْأَةُ تَمُوتُ بِجُمْعٍ شَهَادَةٌ - يَعْنِي الْحَامِلَ - وَالْغَرِقُ وَالْحَرِقُ وَالْمَجْنُوبُ - يَعْنِي ذَاتَ الْجَنْبِ - شَهَادَةٌ ‏"‏ .

Narrator: ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abdullah bin Jabir bin ‘Atik

English translation
It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abdullah bin Jabir bin ‘Atik, from his father, that his grandfather fell sick and the Prophet (ﷺ) came to visit him. One of his family members said: “We hoped that when he died it would be as a martyr in the cause of Allah.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “In that case the martyrs of my nation would be few. Being killed in the cause of Allah is martyrdom; dying of the plague is martyrdom; when a pregnant woman dies in childbirth that is martyrdom; and dying of drowning, or burning, or of pleurisy, is martyrdom.”
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। জাবির ইবনে আতীক (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি অসুস্থ হয়ে পড়লে নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম তাকে দেখতে আসেন। জাবির (রাঃ) এর পরিবারের কেউ বললো, আমরা আশা করতাম যে, সে আল্লাহর রাস্তায় শহীদ হয়ে মৃত্যুবরণ করবে। রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেনঃ তাহলে আমার উম্মাতের শহীদের সংখ্যা তো খুব কম হয়ে যাবে। আল্লাহর পথে নিহত হলে শহীদ, মহামারীতে নিহত হলে শহীদ, যে মহিলা গর্ভাবস্থায় মারা যায় সে শহীদ এবং পানিতে ডুবে, আগুনে পুড়ে ও ক্ষয়রোগে মৃত্যুবরণকারী শহীদ।
