Hazrat Abu Umais (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to visit Jabir bin Atik (may Allah be pleased with him) during his fatal illness. The family members said, "We thought that he would attain martyrdom in the path of Allah." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "In that case, there would be very few martyrs in my Ummah. The one who gives his life in the path of Allah is a martyr, the one who dies of a stomach illness is a martyr, the one who dies of plague is a martyr, the woman who dies while giving birth to a child is a martyr, and the one who dies by burning, drowning, or from an abscess is also a martyr."
