The tradition has been narrated through a different chain of transmitters on the authority of Abu Qatada who said:
A man came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) while he was on the pulpit and said: Do you think if I am killed in the way of Allah... (except this difference in its beginning, the rest of the tradition is the same as the previous one).
