Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Do the rulings of a martyr who is killed apply to the martyrs mentioned by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), such as one who dies of a stomach ailment or one who drowns?
Answer:
I answered you on this recently, meaning, have you forgotten this quickly? I tell you: the martyr who is not washed, shrouded, or prayed over is only the one killed in battle against the disbelievers. As for one who dies in a sudden accident, such as drowning, fire, being crushed, or a woman who dies in childbirth, these are martyrs, meaning they have the reward of martyrs only. As for them being treated like martyrs in their funerals, no. Yes, they are treated like other funerals, like everyone else.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah reward you.
