The one who dies of pleurisy is a martyr, and the one who dies by burning is a martyr, and the woman who dies in childbirth (bi-jamʿ) is a martyr. (1) (2)

--------------------------------------------
(1) In (H): martyr (shahīdah).
(2) A sound (ṣaḥīḥ) hadith. ʿUtayk ibn al-Ḥārith ibn ʿUtayk was mentioned by Ibn Ḥibbān in his "Thiqāt" and he deemed this hadith of his sound, and Mālik's narration of his hadith in the "Muwaṭṭaʾ" strengthens it. Al-Ḥākim declared this hadith sound in 1/351, and he was followed in its text, for the hadith was narrated through another chain as will come. The hadith is in "al-Sunan al-Kubrā" under numbers (1985) and (7455), and the second narration is abridged.
It is found with Mālik in the "Muwaṭṭaʾ" 1/233–234, and from his chain it was transmitted by Aḥmad (23753), Abū Dāwūd (3111), the author in "al-Kubrā" (7455), and Ibn Ḥibbān (3189) and (3190).
Al-Ṭabarānī transmitted it in "al-Muʿjam al-Kabīr" (4607) via Jarīr ibn ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd, from ʿAbd al-Malik ibn ʿUmayr, from Rabīʿ al-Anṣārī, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, visited the son of the brother of Jabr… and he mentioned the hadith. Al-Mundhirī said in "al-Targhīb wa al-Tarhīb" 2/333–334: Its narrators are those whose testimony is accepted in the Ṣaḥīḥ. Al-Haythamī said in "Majmaʿ al-Zawāʾid" 5/300: Its men are the men of the Ṣaḥīḥ, and this is a strong corroboration (mutābaʿah) for ʿUtayk ibn al-Ḥārith.
It will come under number (3194) via Abū al-ʿUmayṣ, from ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn Jabr ibn ʿUtayk, from his father. Abū al-ʿUmayṣ erred in it, as we have explained there.
It will come abridged—with the story of his granting permission to the women to weep—under number (3195) via Dāwūd al-Ṭāʾī, from ʿAbd al-Malik ibn ʿUmayr, from Jabr ibn ʿUtayk.
The hadith has supporting witnesses (shawāhid) to be found in "Sunan" Abī Dāwūd 5/28–29.
Al-Sindī said: His saying "he has been overcome" (qad ghuliba), built on the passive, i.e., death and its severity overcame him. Likewise his saying "we have been overcome concerning you" (qad ghulibnā ʿalayk), i.e., the decree of Allah the Exalted has prevailed over us in your death; otherwise your life is beloved to us, for your beautiful striving in Islam and goodness.
"So when it becomes obligatory" (fa-idhā wajaba), i.e., he died, meaning: what is forbidden is weeping after death, not at its approach.
"Your provisions" (jihāzuk), with fatḥah or kasrah on the jīm: what one needs for a journey, and the meaning is: you have completed the provisions of your hereafter, which is righteous deeds, through death.
"Al-maṭʿūn": the one killed by plague. "Al-mabṭūn": the one killed by a stomach ailment. "Ṣāḥib al-hadam" (with two fatḥahs): the one killed by a collapsed building.
And "ṣāḥib dhāt al-janb": in "al-Nihāyah," it is the large abscess that appears inside the side and bursts inward, and its sufferer rarely survives. =
