If someone dies having stomach cancer will they become a martyr in Jannah and have their sins forgiven? I know its for diarrhea, drowning, wall falling and ofc Jihad but what about Stomach Cancer?

1I am afraid if you declare everyone dying from any disease than that will be too much. Also this status of martyr is not FULL FLEDGE, i heard their are 70 levels of martyr, and this type of martyr who is not martyred in a fight for islam gets only 1 of those.– Zia Ul Rehman MughalAug 15, 2016 at 6:08

In the name of Allah.
Salaam,
In the hadith of the prophet (peace be on him) he said:
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ سُمَىٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " الْمَبْطُونُ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْمَطْعُونُ شَهِيدٌ ".
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "He (a Muslim) who dies of an abdominal disease is a martyr, and he who dies of plague is a martyr."
