Sunan Ibn Majah 2753
It was
narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
“Allah has prepared (reward) for those who go out (to fight) in
His
cause: ‘And do not go out except (to fight) for Jihad in My cause,
out of faith in Me and belief in My Messengers, but he has a
guarantee
from Me that I will admit him to Paradise, or I will return
him to his
dwelling from which he set out, with the reward that he
attained, or
the spoils that he acquired.’ Then he said: ‘By the
One in Whose Hand
is my soul, were it not that it would be too
difficult for the
Muslims, I would never have stayed behind from any
expedition that
went out in the cause of Allah. But I could not find
the resources to
give them mounts and they could not find the
resources to follow me,
nor would they be pleased to stay behind if I
went. By the One in
Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, I wish I
could fight in the cause
of Allah and be killed, then fight and be
killed, then fight and be
killed.’”
