What is the virtue of martyrdom for women and children if they are martyred in battle?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Oct 24, 2026
Allah Almighty has prepared for the martyr, whether male or female, an everlasting, eternal bliss, and characteristics that distinguish them from others. These include the forgiveness of their sins with the first drop of blood, not feeling the pain of being killed except like a pinch, seeing their seat in Paradise, being protected from the torment of the grave, being safe from the Great Terror, being adorned with the garment of faith, and interceding for seventy of their relatives. These virtues are general for all martyrs without distinction.
