Sahih Muslim 1885a

Translation

from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he stood among them and mentioned to them that striving in the path of Allah and believing in Allah are the best of deeds. A man stood up and said, “O Messenger of Allah, what do you think if I am killed in the path of Allah, will my sins be expiated for me?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: “Yes, if you are killed in the path of Allah while you are patient, seeking reward, advancing and not retreating.” Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “What did you say?” He said, “What do you think if I am killed in the path of Allah, will my sins be expiated for me?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Yes, while you are patient, seeking reward, advancing and not retreating, except for debt, for Jibril ᴬˢ told me this.”
