Hazrat Masruq (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I asked Hazrat Abdullah bin Masood (may Allah be pleased with him) about this verse of the Holy Qur'an: { وَلاَ تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِینَ قُتِلُوا فِی سَبِیلِ اللہِ أَمْوَاتًا بَلْ أَحْیَائٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّہِمْ یُرْزَقُونَ } He replied that we asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about this, and he said that the souls of the martyrs are in the form of green birds and roam freely in Paradise wherever they wish. Then they sit on lanterns hanging from the Throne. Allah Almighty addresses them and says, "Ask for whatever you wish." They say, "O our Lord! What more can we ask from You? We are roaming in Paradise; what else could we desire?" Allah Almighty will say, "Ask Me for whatever you wish." They will say, "O our Lord! What should we ask from You? We are enjoying ourselves in Paradise; what else could we wish for?" Allah Almighty will again turn to them and say, "Ask Me for whatever you wish." They will say, "O our Lord! What should we ask from You? We are roaming wherever we wish in Paradise; what more could we want?" Then, when they see that Allah Almighty definitely wants to give them something, they will say, "O our Lord! We ask You to return our souls to our bodies so that we may go and fight in Your path again." When Allah Almighty sees that they are not asking for anything from Paradise, He will leave them in their present state.

Hazrat Shurahbil bin Simt (may Allah have mercy on him) says that we said to Hazrat Ka'b bin Murrah (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him)! Tell us a hadith narrated by the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and fear Allah!" Hazrat Ka'b bin Murrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم say: 'Shoot arrows at the enemy. Whoever's arrow strikes the enemy, Allah Almighty raises his rank by one degree in Paradise.' Upon hearing this statement of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم , Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Abi Naham (may Allah be pleased with him) said: 'O Messenger of Allah! How great is that rank?' The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم replied: 'That rank is not like the land of your father, but the distance between two ranks is the distance of a hundred years.' We then said: 'O Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him)! Tell us a hadith narrated by the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and fear Him.' He said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم say: Whoever's hair turns white in the path of Allah, it will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection, and whoever shoots an arrow in the path of Allah, it is as if he has freed a slave.'"

Hazrat Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man came to the service of the Holy Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and asked, "If I am martyred in the way of Allah, will all my sins be forgiven?" The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم replied, "If you are martyred while being patient, seeking reward, advancing forward and not turning back, then all your deeds will be forgiven except for debt. Jibreel has informed me of this in the same way."
