The Rank of Ḥamzah B.ʿAbd Al-Muṭṭalib رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ
Dear Islamic brothers! Sayyidunā Ḥamzah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ is سَیِّدُ الشَّہَداء - the chief of all martyrs. He was martyred in the Battle of Uḥud, and regarding him and others who were martyred there, Allah stated:
فَرِحِیۡنَ بِمَاۤ اٰتٰہُمُ اللہُ مِنۡ فَضۡلِہٖ ۙ وَ یَسۡتَبۡشِرُوۡنَ بِالَّذِیۡنَ لَمۡ یَلۡحَقُوۡا بِہِمۡ مِّنۡ خَلۡفِہِمۡ ۙ اَلَّا خَوۡفٌ عَلَیۡہِمۡ وَ لَا ہُمۡ یَحۡزَنُوۡنَ (۱۷۰)ۘ
Translation from Kanz al-Īmān: The martyrs are happy over that what Allah has bestowed upon them through His Grace, and are rejoicing for their successors who have not yet joined them (through martyrdom); that, on them is no fear at all nor any grief.[1]
Commentary on this verse from Tafsīr Ṣirāṭ al-Jinān:
In this verse, Allah describes how He granted these martyrs blessings, grace, favour and honour. After they passed away, He bestowed upon them an even better life. He also granted them closeness to Him, the provision of Paradise and lofty bounties. He honoured them with the ability to attain martyrdom, and the martyrs are rejoicing upon these bounties.[2]
The final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated:
When your brothers were martyred in the Battle of Uḥud, Allah placed their souls in the hearts of green birds. They go to the rivers of Paradise, eat fruits from its gardens and rest in lamps of gold shaded by the ꜤArsh. When they witnessed these bounties, they said, “If only our brothers knew what bounties Allah prepared for us.” Allah then declared, “I will inform your
