1313 – Abū Qatādah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood before us and declared that striving in the path of Allah and believing in Allah are the best of deeds. A man rose and asked, “O Messenger of Allah, if I am killed in the path of Allah, will my sins be expiated?” He replied, “Yes, if you are killed in the path of Allah while remaining steadfast, seeking reward, advancing and not retreating.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then asked, “How did you phrase your question?” The man repeated, “If I am killed in the path of Allah, will my sins be expiated?” He said, “Yes, while you are steadfast, seeking reward, advancing and not retreating—except for debt; Jibrīl (Gabriel) told me that.” Recorded by Muslim.
