Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
A martyr has six merits with Allah, among them interceding for seventy of his relatives. This intercession is conditioned upon Allah's satisfaction with the one being interceded for. If the martyr's wife refrains from remarrying after his death, it is hoped that Allah will unite her with him in Paradise, and she will be his wife in addition to the houri. The has greatly emphasized the sanctity of the wives of mujahideen and made betraying a mujahid concerning his family a grave sin.
