Re: Waleed Shaalan: Victim of Virginia Tech Tragedy
In Islam, any Muslim who meets an untimely death such from a snakebite, fire, accident e.t.c. is classified as a martyr…
But as with everything, there are stages to being a martyr, the highest one being someone who fought for other Muslims and laid down his life in the service of Allah :swt: especially if he drowned…
The lowest one, if memory serves me correct is one who died by a snakebite…
Wallahoalam…
