Narrated from Sayyiduna Qais Jazami (may Allah be pleased with him), who was a person honored with the companionship (of the Prophet), that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Six qualities are granted to the martyr: With the very first drop of his blood, all his sins are forgiven; he is shown his abode in Paradise; he is married to women with intensely white and black eyes (huris); he is kept safe from the greatest fear and the punishment of the grave; and he is clothed with the garment of faith.

Sayyiduna Ubadah bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There is no soul on earth that dies and has good with Allah, and yet would like to return to the world, except for the martyr in the way of Allah. Indeed, he wishes to return and be martyred again.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The mention of a martyr was made in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The earth does not yet dry from the martyr’s blood when his two wives rush towards him, as if they are two wet nurses who are shading their child in a barren land or shading him upon finding a lost child. Each of them has a garment in her hand, the value of which is greater than the world and whatever is in it.
