    I don't see how this makes any less sense than any heaven-story. If you don't follow the teachings of Islam, you go to hell. If you follow the teachings of Islam, then you have a chance - but only if Allah wills it. However, if you die as a martyr, then you've essentially signed a contract with Allah, and you will be guaranteed a place in heaven.

    If you want this substantiated, look to what Muhammed is supposed to have said:

    "No good works of yours can ever secure heaven for you, nor can they save you from hell -- not even me, without the grace of God."

    Surahs from the Quran, like 9:111 quoted above, make the exception for martyrdom.
