What is the reward of a woman who dies during the post-natal bleeding period?

Question:
Your Eminence! In her final question, the questioner says: Some people say that a woman, throughout the period of post-natal bleeding, which is forty days after childbirth, if she dies, she is a *Huriyyah* (i.e., in Paradise). Is this correct?

Answer:
No, this has no basis. However, good is hoped for her. Some hadiths indicate that if she dies as a result of childbirth, she is a martyr. Good is hoped for her. As for her being a *Huriyyah*, I am not aware of any basis for that. But if she dies as a result of childbirth, good is hoped for her; it is hoped that she will be among the martyrs; good is hoped for her, like the victim of a building collapse, or drowning. Yes.
