An Exegetic Study of the Verses Signifying Martyrs` Being Alive

The Almighty God has described an after-death life for martyrs in two Quranic verses. What meant by martyrs in the two verse lies in all those perceiving the truth intuitively and seek to promote the right word and eradicate the falsehood, although they do not be killed in jihad and die naturally. The commentators have two views about the type of life; some have viewed it as true and some other as virtual. The former also have different opinions; some relate the life to material body in the world, and some other to the soul in the kingdom of the world. This article, while analyzing the above-mentioned views, states that the life of martyrs is a real life in a state of affairs, which ordinary people are deprived of. A comprehensive view of the concept of this particular vital life is "the unlimited encirclement of martyrs on the realms of property and kingdom through science and power."
