Āl ‘Imrān

وَلَئِن مُّتُّمْ أَوْ قُتِلْتُمْ لإِلَى الله تُحْشَرُونَ

158. "And if you die or be killed, certainly to Allah shall you be gathered together."

There is no more than one way and it is going towards Allah. Then, why do we not accept the best kind of passing away contently when we move to that direction?

And, if death and martyrdom is returning to Allah, then why is there anxiety in our mind? Imam Hussayn (as) has said:

"If bodies are prepared for death, then the death of a man in the way of Allah with sword is the best death." ¹
