"الشُّهَدَاءُ أرْبَعَةٌ: رَجُلٌ مُؤمِنٌ جَيِّدُ الإِيمانِ لَقَى الْعدُوَّ فَصَدَقَ اللهَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ فَذَاك الَّذِي يَرْفَعُ النَّاسُ إِلَيهِ أعْيُنَهُم يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ هكذا، ورَجُلٌ مُؤمنٌ جيِّدُ الإيمانِ لَقَى العَدُوَّ فَكأنَّما ضُرِبَ جِلْدُهُ بِشَوْكِ طَلحٍ من الْجُبْنِ أتاهُ سَهْمٌ غَرْبٌ فقَتَلَهُ فهو في الدَّرجة الثَّانِيَةِ، ورَجُلٌ مُؤمِنٌ خلطَ عَملًا صَالِحًا وآخَرَ سَيِّئًا لَقَى العَدُوَّ فَصَدَقَ اللهَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ فَذَاكَ في الدَّرَجَة الثَّالِثَةِ، وَرَجُلٌ مُؤمِنٌ أسْرَفَ عَلى نَفْسِهِ لَقِيَ العَدُوَّ فَصَدَقَ اللهَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ فَذَاكَ في الدَّرَجَةِ الرَّابِعَةِ".
Translation
Machine translation, not reviewed
"The martyrs are four: a believing man of good faith who meets the enemy and is truthful to Allah until he is killed; that is the one toward whom people raise their eyes on the Day of Resurrection, thus. And a believing man of good faith who meets the enemy, as though his skin were struck with thorns of acacia out of cowardice, and an arrow from an unknown source strikes and kills him; he is in the second rank. And a believing man who mixed good deeds with other bad deeds, who meets the enemy and is truthful to Allah until he is killed; that one is in the third rank. And a believing man who was excessive against himself, who meets the enemy and is truthful to Allah until he is killed; that one is in the fourth rank."
