أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يُحَدِّثُ
عنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَامَ فِيهِمْ فَذَكَرَ لَهُمْ أَنَّ الْجِهَادَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَالْإِيمَانَ بِاللهِ أَفْضَلُ الْأَعْمَالِ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ قُتِلْتُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تُكَفَّرُ عَنِّي خَطَايَايَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «نَعَمْ إِنْ قُتِلْتَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَأَنْتَ صَابِرٌ مُحْتَسِبٌ مُقْبِلٌ غَيْرُ مُدْبِرٍ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «كَيْفَ؟» قُلْتُ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ قُتِلْتُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَتُكَفَّرُ عَنِّي خَطَايَايَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «نَعَمْ إِنْ قُتِلْتَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَأَنْتَ صَابِرٌ مُحْتَسِبٌ مُقْبِلٌ غَيْرُ مُدْبِرٍ إِلَّا الدَّيْنَ فَإِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ قَالَ لِي ذَلِكَ»

✧ From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, that he stood among them and mentioned to them that jihad in the path of Allah and faith in Allah are the best of deeds. A man stood and said, "O Messenger of Allah, do you think if I am killed in the path of Allah, my sins will be expiated?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Yes, if you are killed in the path of Allah while you are patient, seeking reward, advancing and not retreating." Then he said, "How?" I said, "Do you think if I am killed in the path of Allah, my sins will be expiated?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Yes, if you are killed in the path of Allah while you are patient, seeking reward, advancing and not retreating, except for debt, for Jibril told me that."
