Question

Is the following true?

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“Whoever flees from one place to another due to such trials and fitnah where he fears over his life and Din [religion], he will be recorded to be a truthful person and when he passes away, Allah will regard him to be a martyr”

 

Answer

This narration appears in Musnadul Firdaws. However, the chain consists of a fabricator. The Hadith is therefore not suitable to quote.

(Dhaylul La-Alil Masnu’ah, vol. 1, pg. 498, Hadith: 601, Tanzihush Shari’ah, vol. 2, pg. 187)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

Despite the grading of the above narration, it is important to note that this deed is undoubtedly very applaudable.

Imam Bukhari (rahimahullah) has labelled this as a (fundamental) act of our Din.

(Sahih Bukhari, Kitabul Iman, Chapter of fleeing from trials (fitnah) being a part of the Din).

This is actually increasingly becoming the challenge of our age.
