Sahih al-Bukhari 7463 (Book 97, Hadith 89) #7166
Rewards of Carrying Out Jihad

SUMMARY: Allah guarantees that those who carry out Jihad in His cause will be rewarded either with admission to Paradise or with a reward or booty.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger said, "Allah guarantees (the person who carries out Jihad in His Cause and nothing compelled him to go out but Jihad in His Cause and the belief in His Word) that He will either admit him into Paradise (Martyrdom) or return him with reward or booty he has earned to his residence from where he went out".
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ تَكَفَّلَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ جَاهَدَ فِي سَبِيلِهِ، لاَ يُخْرِجُهُ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ إِلاَّ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِهِ، وَتَصْدِيقُ كَلِمَتِهِ أَنْ يُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ، أَوْ يَرُدَّهُ إِلَى مَسْكَنِهِ بِمَا نَالَ مِنْ أَجْرٍ أَوْ غَنِيمَةٍ

This hadith speaks about the rewards of carrying out jihad in the cause of Allah. It is narrated by Abu Huraira, who was one of the companions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The hadith states that Allah guarantees those who carry out jihad in His cause and nothing compelled them to go out but jihad and belief in His Word, will be rewarded either with admission to Paradise or with a reward or booty they have earned from their journey. This means that if someone goes for jihad, they will be rewarded by Allah no matter what happens on their journey. The rewards could include admission into paradise, which is the highest form of reward for any believer; as well as material rewards such as money and other items taken from war spoils. This hadith encourages believers to strive hard for the sake of Allah and trust Him that He will provide them with whatever they need during their journey and upon returning home.
