The vanguard of Faith thinks nothing of self sacrifice; their reward is with Allah (swt) good pleasure. As stated in the Holy Qur’an:
The vanguard (of Islam)- the first of those who forsook (their homes) and of those who gave them aid, and (also) those who follow them in (all) good deeds,- well- pleased is Allah with them, as are they with Him: for them hath He prepared gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein for ever: that is the supreme felicity.9:100
The vanguard of Islam (as I understand from the above verse) are those in the first rank; are those who are dear and close to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (owbp) and who suffer for Islam, and never flinch when terrible sufferings was inflicted on them from the unbelievers (of old). The vanguard of Islam was the heroes who were close and dear to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (owbp), and not only the heroes but also the believers who truly love Allah (swt) and all His Prophets, His Apostles, His Angels and His Holy book: The Holy Qur’an. Also all men and women who have lived a noble, just and pure life.
