The Immense reward for a woman bleeding or dying due to child birth

While reading Imam qurtubi's  التذكرة بأحوال الموتى وأمور الآخرةه i came across this narration: 

وخرج أبو داود الطيالسي في مسنده قال: «حدثنا هشام عن قتادة عن راشد عن عبادة بن الصامت: أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: والنفساء يجرها ولدها يوم القيامة بسرره إلى الجنة» .

The Messenger of Allah (sallalahu `alayhi wa sallam) was reported to have said that " A woman who suffers from (continuous) postnatal or puerperal blood will have her child dragging her to paradise on the Day of Judgement "

[Ref: Imam Abu Dawood at-tayalisi (r,h) recorded this in Musnad , Imam tabrani in his Mu`jam al-Awsat (9/125) , Imam Mundhari in Targheeb wa tarheeb (2/291) grading it hasan whereas others such as Ibn katheer commented  إسناده لا بأس به ولكن اختلف في صحبة راشد بن حبيش هذا فإن كان تابعياً فلعله قد رواه عن عبادة بن الصامت فيصير متصلاً جيداً ] 

A similar hadeeth states that " woman dying during child birth receives (a form of) martydom " [Ref: Sunan an-Nasa'i 2054] and the above narration could very well be connected to this one as well. 

So many rights, leverages, rewards and exemptions in Islam dictated  by Lord of the planets, stars and all that exists in every milky way ever created ! yet some women under the guise of "feminism" think "freeing the nipple" or "shoving your husband down" is a way of redeeming freedom.
