BEST RANK OF MARTYRDOM

1347

“Ummur-Rubaie the daughter of Al Bara'a (mother of Haritha, son of Surakoh) went to the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, and asked, ‘O Messenger of Allah, will you tell me about Haritha (who had been killed on the day of Badr). If he is in Paradise I can endure it with patience but if not I shall weep.’ The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, consoled her saying, ‘Umm Haritha, there are many ranks in Paradise and your son has achieved the best - Firdous.’"

Bukhari with a chain up to Anas who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
