Are all those die in the holy  wars and the innocent people killed in some accidents or are murdered  Shahid? I am really confused. Please enlighten me on this issue and also explain what happens to a shahid after his or her death. <\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>The word Shahid  connotes ones who bears witness to a certain fact. It implies martyrs  as they live their lives bearing witness of the truth and spare nothing  to remain steadfast in the way of their Lord even their lives. The basic  thing that qualifies one to the position is this conviction. This  conviction varies in different individuals raising them to different  stages. Therefore, we cannot draw a line to distinguish between their  degrees.  <\/p>\n<div>Those  who die in accidents or killed innocent may get some reward from the  Almighty but accidentally being killed in a war by the enemy does not  raise one to the status of Shahid. The basic criteria are living the life of submission to God and sacrificing all in His way even life if need be.<\/div>\n<div>The  Holy Qur\u2019an has informed us that those who lived life of submission  before God and sacrifice their lives necessarily merit success in the  Hereafter and are rewarded right from their death. It says: <\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<div>Think  not of those, who are slain in the way of Allah, as dead. Nay, they are  living. With their Lord they have provision. (3:169)<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div>This  brief information tells that they are not dead like others rather they  are being rewarded. This treatment is special for the martyrs, the  Messengers, the Prophets (sws), and other pious people who lived lives  of virtue and rightness. They will be rewarded right after death. The  Holy Qur\u2019an does not tell us the nature of this life. This falls within  the matters we cannot fully comprehend like most of the matters  regarding the hereafter. We only know that they will be experiencing  life and will be rewarded by their Lord and while the nature of this  reward cannot be comprehended.<\/div>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-03-03<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6796\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What does the term shahid  in Islamic literature truly represent?
