باب اسْتِحْبَابِ طَلَبِ الشَّهَادَةِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى
Sahih Muslim 1908
It has been narrated on the authority of Anas b. Malik that the Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) said
Who seeks martyrdom with sincerity shall get its reward, though he may not achieve it.حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَنْ طَلَبَ الشَّهَادَةَ صَادِقًا أُعْطِيَهَا وَلَوْ لَمْ تُصِبْهُ " .
