Does the mujahid in the path of Allah who dies with a debt prevent him from entering Paradise because he did not pay his debts?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The fighter or the mujahid in the path of Allah ... before ... Allah will reward him with good, and those present learn jurisprudence and there become circles of knowledge for him. We were all ignorant that the mujahid in the path of Allah stands at the gate of Paradise because of the reason of not paying the debt! We did not know this before; now, by the grace of Allah upon us, we have come to know it.
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah.
The questioner : As for the mujahid, if ... all the commands issued by Allah the Exalted, such as prayer, fasting, Hajj, and zakah ... and the remaining matter is the debt. I wonder if the circumstances of jihad have become easy for Muslims, so we fight in the path of Allah. Here, does this debt actually prevent him from entering Paradise?
The Shaykh : No, there is no hadith that says this martyred debtor does not enter Paradise. Rather, the hadith says But whether he enters Paradise or does not enter Paradise is another matter. That is to say, we cannot say about the non-martyr that if he died in debt, he does not enter Paradise. If that is the case for the non-martyr, what about the martyr? But we say that the death of the martyr with a debt prevents the forgiveness of this specific sin, which is the debt, while his other sins are forgiven for him. Please.
