martyr." He said, "The martyrs among my people will then be few." They said,
"Then who are they, Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Anyone who is killed in the
way of Allah is a martyr. Anyone who dies in the way of Allah is a martyr.
Anyone who dies of the plague is a martyr. Anyone who dies of a stomach illness
is a martyr. Anyone who drowns is a martyr." [Muslim]

give him your property.' He said, 'What is your opinion if he fights me?' He
said, 'Then fight him.' He said, 'What is your opinion if he kills me?' He said,
'Then you will be a martyr.' He said, 'What is your opinion if I kill him?' He
said, 'Then he will be in the Fire.'" [Muslim]
