Wa 'alaykumus salaam wa rahmatullah,

The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said, "Whoever is killed attempting to save his property is a Shaheed (martyr)." (Musnad Ahmad, 2:460, Hadeeth no. 6689)

Because the life, wealth and family of a believer are sacrosanct, and if anything of this is threatened it is permissible to protect oneself and to fight. If this leads to the murder of the owner he gains the rank of the martyr. (Commentary from al-Arba'een of Shah Wali Allah ad-Dihlawi (ra))

It is also narrated as: "Whoever is killed in defence of his property is a martyr (shaheed)." (Abu Dawood, 4772 & at-Tirmidhi, 1421)

Al-Bukhaari (2829) and Muslim (1914) narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The martyrs are five: the one who dies of the plague, the one who dies of a stomach disease, the one who drowns, the one who is crushed beneath a falling wall, and the martyr who is killed for the sake of Allaah.” *

Ahmad (23804), Abu Dawood (3111) and al-Nasaa’i (1846) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Who do you regard as martyrs?” They said: The one who is killed for the sake of Allaah. The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Martyrs are seven besides the one who is killed for the sake of Allaah. The one who dies of the plague is a martyr, the one who drowns is a martyr, the one who dies of pleurisy is a martyr, the one who dies of a stomach disease is a martyr, the one who is burned to death is a martyr, the one who dies beneath a falling wall is a martyr, and the woman who dies in pregnancy is a martyr.”
