أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْفَقِيهُ أَنْبَأَ أَبُو الْمُثَنَّى أَنْبَأَ مُسَدَّدٌ وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْقَطِيعِيُّ أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَا ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ وَهِشَامٌ وَابْنُ عَوْنٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَجْفَاءِ السُّلَمِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ يَقُولُ
وَأُخْرَى فَتَقُولُونُهَا لِمَنْ قُتِلَ فِي مَغَازِيكُمْ أَوْ مَاتَ قُتِلَ فُلَانٌ وَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ أَوْ مَاتَ فُلَانٌ شَهِيدًا وَلَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَوْقَرَ عَجُزَ دَابَّتِهِ أَوْ قَالَ رَاحِلَتِهِ ذَهَبًا أَوْ وَرِقًا يَلْتَمِسُ التِّجَارَةَ فَلَا تَقُولُوا ذَاكُمْ وَلَكِنْ قُولُوا كَمَا قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَنْ قُتِلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَوْ مَاتَ فَهُوَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ»

✧ And another [saying] you say about one who is killed in your campaigns or dies: 'So-and-so was killed and he is a martyr,' or 'So-and-so died a martyr,' though perhaps he had loaded the hindquarters of his beast—or he said his mount—with gold or silver seeking trade. So do not say that, but say as the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Whoever is killed in the cause of Allah or dies, he is in Paradise.'
Notes
هَذَا حَدِيثٌ كَبِيرٌ صَحِيحٌ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ وَلَا وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمَا لِقَوْلِ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ نُبِّئْتُ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَجْفَاءِ وَأَنَا ذَاكِرٌ بِمَشِيئَةِ اللَّهِ فِي كِتَابِ النِّكَاحِ مَا يُسْتَدَلُّ بِهِ عَلَى صِحَّتِهِ صحيح
machine translationThis is a great authentic (ṣaḥīḥ) hadith, and neither of them (al-Bukhārī and Muslim) narrated it, nor did either of them, because of the statement of Salamah b. ʿAlqamah from Ibn Sīrīn that he said: "I was informed from Abū al-ʿAjfāʾ." And I will mention, God willing, in the Book of Marriage what can be used as evidence for its authenticity. Authentic (ṣaḥīḥ).
