An Islamic martyr gets to intercede for 70 of his family members so that they can get into paradise.  Don't you think that's a loving sacrifice for them?

"Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad)  

Dawud :: Book 14 : Hadith 2516

Narrated AbudDarda':

The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: The intercession of a martyr will be accepted for seventy members of his family."
