Are the husband and daughter considered martyrs after their death in a car accident on Friday morning while they were on their way to perform Umrah, and will the 14-year-old daughter, who has reached the age of تكليف (religious accountability), be held accountable like adults?
We ask Allah to improve your solace regarding your husband and daughter and to accept them as martyrs. Your husband's face turning white after his death, on a Friday, and on his way to a great act of obedience are signs of good, and we hope that this indicates a good end. And whoever dies in a car accident is considered among the martyrs. And whoever shows signs of puberty or reaches 15 years of age is held accountable for their deeds, and Allah may admit some people to Paradise without reckoning. We advise patience and frequent supplication for them both.
