“On the day of the battle of Khaybar, a group of the Companions of the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, came saying: ‘So and so has become a martyr, so and so has become a martyr.’ Then they passed by a corpse and remarked: ‘He is also a martyr.’ The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said: ‘Indeed no, I have seen him in the Fire in a cloak he stole.’”
