hadith 2629
The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘Nobody who dies and who has a good position with Allah that pleases him ever wishes to return back to this world, not even to be given the world and all that is in it, except the martyr, for he wishes to return to it in order that he may be martyred again because of the virtue that he has seen in martyrdom.
رسولُ اللهِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): ما مِن نفسٍ تَموتُ لها عندَ اللّهِ خَيرٌ يَسُرُّها أنّها تَرجِعُ إلَى الدنيا ، ولا أنَّ لَهَا الدنيا وما فيها ، إلّا الشهيدَ ؛ فإنّهُ يَتَمَنّى أن يَرجِعَ فَيُقتَلَ فِي الدنيا ؛ لِما يَرى مِن فَضلِ الشهادَةِ .

hadith 2630
Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Verily if you are not killed then you are going to die anyway, and I swear by the One Who holds Alis soul in His Hand, a thousand strikes of the sword on ones head is easier to bear than to die in ones bed.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنّكُم إن لا تُقتَلُوا تَمُوتُوا ، والذي نَفسُ عَلِيٍّ بيدِهِ ، لألفُ ضَربَةٍ بالسَّيفِ عَلَى الرَّأسِ أيسَرُ مِن مَوتٍ على فِراشٍ.
