Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Nations were displayed before me; one or two prophets would pass by along with a few followers. A prophet would pass by accompanied by nobody. Then a big crowd of people passed in front of me and I asked, Who are they Are they my followers?" It was said, 'No. It is Moses and his followers It was said to me, 'Look at the horizon.'' Behold! There was a multitude of people filling the horizon. Then it was said to me, 'Look there and there about the stretching sky! Behold! There was a multitude filling the horizon,' It was said to me, 'This is your nation out of whom seventy thousand shall enter Paradise without reckoning.' "Then the Prophet ﷺ entered his house without telling his companions who they (the 70,000) were. So the people started talking about the issue and said, "It is we who have believed in Allah and followed His Apostle; therefore those people are either ourselves or our children who are born m the Islamic era, for we were born in the Pre-lslamic Period of Ignorance.'' When the Prophet ﷺ heard of that, he came out and said. "Those people are those who do not treat themselves with Ruqya, nor do they believe in bad or good omen (from birds etc.) nor do they get themselves branded (Cauterized). but they put their trust (only) in their Lord " On that 'Ukasha bin Muhsin said. "Am I one of them, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes." Then another person got up and said, "Am I one of them?" The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Ukasha has anticipated you."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عُرِضَتْ عَلَىَّ الأُمَمُ فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ وَالنَّبِيَّانِ يَمُرُّونَ مَعَهُمُ الرَّهْطُ وَالنَّبِيُّ لَيْسَ مَعَهُ أَحَدٌ حَتَّى رُفِعَ لِي سَوَادٌ عَظِيمٌ قُلْتُ مَا هَذَا أُمَّتِي هَذِهِ قِيلَ هَذَا مُوسَى وَقَوْمُهُ قِيلَ انْظُرْ إِلَى الأُفُقِ فَإِذَا سَوَادٌ يَمْلأُ الأُفُقَ ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِي انْظُرْ هَا هُنَا وَهَا هُنَا فِي آفَاقِ السَّمَاءِ فَإِذَا سَوَادٌ قَدْ مَلأَ الأُفُقَ قِيلَ هَذِهِ أُمَّتُكَ وَيَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ هَؤُلاَءِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ وَلَمْ يُبَيِّنْ لَهُمْ فَأَفَاضَ الْقَوْمُ وَقَالُوا نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَاتَّبَعْنَا رَسُولَهُ فَنَحْنُ هُمْ أَوْ أَوْلاَدُنَا الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا فِي الإِسْلاَمِ فَإِنَّا وُلِدْنَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَبَلَغَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَخَرَجَ فَقَالَ هُمُ الَّذِينَ لاَ يَسْتَرْقُونَ وَلاَ يَتَطَيَّرُونَ وَلاَ يَكْتَوُونَ وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ فَقَالَ عُكَّاشَةُ بْنُ مِحْصَنٍ أَمِنْهُمْ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَامَ آخَرُ فَقَالَ أَمِنْهُمْ أَنَا قَالَ سَبَقَكَ عُكَّاشَةُ  

"When the Prophet ﷺ was taken for the Night Journey, he passed by a Prophet, and, some Prophets and with them were some people, and a Prophet, and some Prophets and with them was a group of people, and a Prophet, and some Prophets and with them there was no one. Until he passed by a large multitude. (The Prophet ﷺsaid: ) I said: 'Who is this?' It was said: 'Musa and his people. But raise your head and look.' There was a large multitude that covered the horizon, from one side to the other. It was said: 'These people are your Ummah, and there are seventy thousand besides these from your Ummah that shall enter Paradise without a reckoning.' So he went inside, and they did not question him, and he gave no explanation to them. (Some of them) said: 'We are them.' Others said: 'They are the children who were born upon the Fitrah and Islam.' So the Prophet ﷺ came out and said: 'They are those who do not get themselves cauterized, nor seek Ruqyah, nor read omens, and upon their Lord they rely.' So 'Ukashah bin Mihsan stood and said: 'Am I among them O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'Yes.' Then another one stood up and said: 'Am I among them?' So he said "Ukashah has preceded you to it.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The nations were presented to me in a vision at the appointed time, and I saw all of them, and I was amazed by their large number and their dignity. They filled the plains and the mountains. It was said to me, 'O Muhammad, are you pleased?' I said, 'Yes, my Lord.' He said, 'For you, there are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without being held accountable. They are the ones who do not practice Aatrar (cauterization) or seek Ruqyah (healing through charms), and they rely upon their Lord.' Ukkashah bin Mihsan stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah that He may make me one of them.' So he supplicated for him. Then another man stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah that He may make me one of them.' He said, 'Ukkashah has preceded you in this.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ الْأُمَمُ بِالْمَوْسِمِ فَرَأَيْتُ جَمِيعَهُمْ فَأَعْجَبَنِي كَثْرَتُهُمْ وَهَيْبَتُهُمْ قَدْ مَلَأُوا السَّهْلَ وَالْجَبَلَ فَقِيلَ أَيْ مُحَمَّدُ رَضِيتَ؟ فَأَقُولُ نَعَمْ أَيْ رَبِّ فَقَالَ إِنَّ لَكَ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ وَهُمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَسْتَرْقُونَ وَلَا يَكْتَوُونَ وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ فَقَامَ عُكَّاشَةُ بْنُ مِحْصَنٍ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ فَدَعَا لَهُ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ آخِرُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ فَقَالَ «سَبَقَكَ إِلَيْهَا عُكَّاشَةُ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "The nations were presented to me, and I saw a Prophet accompanied by a group, a Prophet accompanied by one man, and a Prophet with no one accompanying him. Then a huge group was raised before me, so I asked if they were my nation. It was said, 'This is Musa (Moses) and his people, but look at the horizon.' So I looked and saw another huge group. Then it was said to me, 'Look at the other side.' And there was another huge group. It was said to me, 'Your nation, along with them are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without being held accountable or experiencing punishment.' Then the Prophet ﷺ got up and entered. The people began to discuss and ask, 'Who are those who will enter Paradise without being held accountable?' Some said, 'Perhaps they are those who accompanied the Prophet ﷺ .' Others said, 'Perhaps they are those who were born in Islam and never associated partners with Allah and mentioned certain virtues.' The Prophet ﷺ came out to them and asked, 'What are you discussing?' They informed him of what they were saying. He said, 'They are those who do not seek cauterization, do not ask for omens, and do not believe in evil omens. They rely solely on their Lord.' Then 'Ukkashah bin Mihsan Al-Asadi stood up and asked, 'Am I among them, O Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'Yes, you are among them.' Then another man stood up and asked, 'Am I among them, O Messenger of Allah?' He replied, 'Ukkashah beat you to it.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "One day the prophets were presented before me. The Prophet ﷺ would come and only one man would accompany him, and the Prophet ﷺ would come and only two men would accompany him, and the Prophet ﷺ would come and only a few people would accompany him. Similarly, I looked and saw a large number of black people, so I thought they were my nation. When they approached, I saw that they were the people of Musa (Moses). Then it was said to me, 'Look again,' so I looked and saw many more black people. It was said, 'These are your people.' So I became happy and pleased. Then it was said to me, 'Among these are seventy thousand of your people who will enter Paradise without being held accountable or punished.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ left while we were discussing this matter, and the Muslims inquired, 'Who are these seventy thousand?' They all agreed that they were those who were born in Islam and did not mix anything of shirk (associating partners with Allah) with it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned and said, 'They are those who do not seek ruqya (protective charms or superstitious remedies), nor do they seek omens, nor do they practice cauterization, and they rely solely on their Lord.' Then 'Ukkasha stood up and said, 'Pray to Allah to make me one of them.' He ﷺ said, 'You are one of them.' Another man stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah to make me one of them.' He ﷺ said, 'Ukkasha has preceded you in that.'"
