Sahih Muslim 1876e (Book 33, Hadith 159) #11969
Rewards for Wounds Received in the Way of Allah

SUMMARY: This hadith explains that any wound received by a Muslim in the way of Allah will be rewarded on the Day of Judgment and will be bleeding profusely with a pleasant smell.

It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Haraira that the Messenger of Allah said: Every wound received by a Muslim in the way of Allah will appear on the Day of Judgment in the same condition as it was when it was inflicted, and would be bleeding profusely. The colour (of its discharge) will be the colour of blood, but its smell will be the smell of musk. By the Being in Whose Hand is Muhammad's life, if it were not hard upon the Muslims, I would not lag behind any expedition undertaken for Jihad, but I do not possess abundant means to provide the Mujahids with riding animals, nor do they (i. e. all of them) have abundant means (to provide themselves with all the means of Jihad) to follow me, nor would it please their hearts to stay behind me.
وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ، قَالَ هَذَا مَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَذَكَرَ أَحَادِيثَ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ كُلُّ كَلْمٍ يُكْلَمُهُ الْمُسْلِمُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ تَكُونُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَهَيْئَتِهَا إِذَا طُعِنَتْ تَفَجَّرُ دَمًا اللَّوْنُ لَوْنُ دَمٍ وَالْعَرْفُ عَرْفُ الْمِسْكِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ فِي يَدِهِ لَوْلاَ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَا قَعَدْتُ خَلْفَ سَرِيَّةٍ تَغْزُو فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنْ لاَ أَجِدُ سَعَةً فَأَحْمِلَهُمْ وَلاَ يَجِدُونَ سَعَةً فَيَتَّبِعُونِي وَلاَ تَطِيبُ أَنْفُسُهُمْ أَنْ يَقْعُدُوا بَعْدِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how Muslims who receive wounds in the way of Allah will be rewarded on the Day of Judgment. The Prophet Muhammad said that these wounds would appear on that day as they were when they were inflicted, and would still be bleeding profusely. However, instead of having a bad smell, it would have a pleasant smell like musk. He also said that if he had enough money to provide riding animals for all those who wanted to join him in his expeditions for Jihad, he wouldn't hesitate to do so. This shows us how important it is to help others who are trying to do good deeds and follow their faith. It also teaches us about selflessness and sacrifice - even though Muhammad himself didn't have enough money or resources, he was willing to put others before himself and help them out anyway.
