A: If they are Muslims, they will be martyrs if they are struck by rockets or anything else that causes their death. They will have the ruling of martyrs. Similarly, any Muslim who is killed wrongfully anywhere would be a martyr.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: He who is killed in defense of his faith is a martyr; he who is killed in defense of his property is a martyr; he who is killed in defense of his own life is a martyr and he who is killed in defense of his family is a martyr.
It is authentically reported inthe Sahih (authentic) Book of Muslim, that a man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, what should I do if a man comes to seize my money? He said: 'Do not give him your money.' He said: 'What if he fights with me? He said: 'Fight him.' He said: 'What if he kills me?' He said: 'You are a martyr.' He said: 'What if I kill him?' He said: 'He is in HellFire.'
This great Hadith indicates that a Muslim killed unjustly is a martyr. All Praise and Grace are due to Allah Alone for that.
