Considering the Deceased in a Traffic Accident as a Martyr
The sister says: Her son died at the age of 19 in a fire accident, he stayed in the hospital for nearly a year and then died. Is he considered a martyr, and does she receive reward and compensation for her patience and staying with him in the hospital during this time?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: A martyr is considered a martyr by the testimony of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, as death by fire is one of the types of martyrdom. Your patience with him and your assistance to him will not be wasted with God, the Most Just. Congratulations to those who seek the face of God, and God knows best.
