Daily Hadith Thu 17-Nov-2011 - 20 Dhul-Hijjah 1432 حديث اليوم
Obligation of Jihad
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "The martyr experiences no more pain in being slain than one of you experiences from the stinging of an ant."[At-Tirmidhi].


Commentary:
This Hadith tells us how convenient martyrdom has been made by Allah. One who is martyred, feels as much pain in martyrdom as a person ordinarily feels with the sting of an ant.
