Can a mother pray for her son to die as a Martyr?

The Palestinian Authority has been effective at brainwashing people of all ages to believe that achieving martyrdom, or dying for Allah, is a supreme value. This is demonstrated through interviews with family members of terrorists who openly express their pride and desire for their loved ones to become martyrs. The PA heavily promotes this messaging through official television broadcasts, targeting children in particular. Even after the deaths of one child, some parents pray for their other children to also become martyrs. This strategy has been criticized as "civilization abuse" and continues despite supposed efforts at revitalization by the PA.
