Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، قَالَ الطَّاعُونُ وَالْمَبْطُونُ وَالْغَرِيقُ وَالنُّفَسَاءُ شَهَادَةٌ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُثْمَانَ مِرَارًا وَرَفَعَهُ مَرَّةً إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏

Translation

Ubaidullah ibn Said informed us: Yahya narrated to us, from al-Taymi, from Abu Uthman, from Amir ibn Malik, from Safwan ibn Umayyah, who said: The plague, death from abdominal illness, drowning, and death in childbirth are martyrdom. The narrator said: Abu Uthman narrated this to us several times, and once he attributed it to the Prophet ﷺ.

Translation notes
  • The source first gives this as a statement of Safwan ibn Umayyah, then notes that Abu Uthman attributed it to the Prophet on one occasion.
