حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ فَرَجِ بْنِ فَضَالَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ الْخَبِيرِ بْنِ ثَابِتِ بْنِ قَيْسِ بْنِ شَمَّاسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ جَدِّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُقَالُ لَهَا أُمُّ خَلَّادٍ وَهِيَ مُنْتَقِبَةٌ تَسْأَلُ عَنِ ابْنِهَا وَهُوَ مَقْتُولٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهَا بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ جِئْتِ تَسْأَلِينَ عَنِ ابْنِكِ وَأَنْتِ مُنْتَقِبَةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ أُرْزَأَ ابْنِي فَلَنْ أُرْزَأَ حَيَائِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ ابْنُكِ لَهُ أَجْرُ شَهِيدَيْنِ قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ وَلِمَ ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لِأَنَّهُ قَتَلَهُ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ .

A woman called Umm Khallad came to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم while she was veiled. She was searching for her son who had been killed (in the battle) Some of the Companions of the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said to her: You have come here asking for your son while veiling your face? She said: If I am afflicted with the loss of my son, I shall not suffer the loss of my modesty. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: You will get the reward of two martyrs for your son. She asked: Why is that so, Messenger of Allah? He replied: Because the people of the Book have killed him.
