The Prophet ﷺ said, "The people were displayed in front of me and I saw one prophet passing by with a large group of his followers, and another prophet passing by with only a small group of people, and another prophet passing by with only ten (persons), and another prophet passing by with only five (persons), and another prophet passed by alone. And then I looked and saw a large multitude of people, so I asked Gabriel, "Are these people my followers?' He said, 'No, but look towards the horizon.' I looked and saw a very large multitude of people. Gabriel said. 'Those are your followers, and those are seventy thousand (persons) in front of them who will neither have any reckoning of their accounts nor will receive any punishment.' I asked, 'Why?' He said, 'For they used not to treat themselves with branding (cauterization) nor with Ruqya (get oneself treated by the recitation of some Verses of the Qur'an) and not to see evil omen in things, and they used to put their trust (only) in their Lord." On hearing that, 'Ukasha bin Mihsan got up and said (to the Prophet), "Invoke Allah to make me one of them." The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Allah, make him one of them." Then another man got up and said (to the Prophet), "Invoke Allah to make me one of them." The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Ukasha has preceded you."

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  

The Prophet ﷺ once came out to us and said, "Some nations were displayed before me. A prophet would pass in front of me with one man, and another with two men, and another with a group of people. and another with nobody with him. Then I saw a great crowd covering the horizon and I wished that they were my followers, but it was said to me, 'This is Moses and his followers.' Then it was said to me, 'Look'' I looked and saw a big gathering with a large number of people covering the horizon. It was said, "Look this way and that way.' So I saw a big crowd covering the horizon. Then it was said to me, "These are your followers, and among them there are 70,000 who will enter Paradise without (being asked about their) accounts. " Then the people dispersed and the Prophet ﷺ did not tell who those 70,000 were. So the companions of the Prophet ﷺ started talking about that and some of them said, "As regards us, we were born in the era of heathenism, but then we believed in Allah and His Apostle . We think however, that these (70,000) are our offspring." That talk reached the Prophet ﷺ who said, "These (70,000) are the people who do not draw an evil omen from (birds) and do not get treated by branding themselves and do not treat with Ruqya, but put their trust (only) in their Lord." then 'Ukasha bin Muhsin got up and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Am I one of those (70,000)?" 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."

I was with Sa'id b. Jubair when he said: Who amongst you saw a star shooting last night? I said: It was I; then I said: I was in fact not (busy) in prayer, but was stung by a scorpion (and that is the reason why I was awake and had a glimpse of the shooting star). He said: Then what did you do? I said: I practised charm. He said: What urged you to do this? I said: (I did this according to the implied suggestion) of the hadith which al-Shu'ba narrated. He said: What did al-Shu'ba narrate to you? I said: Buraida b. Husaib al-Aslami narrated to us. The charm is of no avail except in case of the (evil influence) of an eye or the sting of a scorpion. He said: He who acted according to what he had heard (from the Holy Prophet) acted rightly, but Ibn 'Abbas narrated to us from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he said: There were brought before me the peoples and I saw an apostle and a small group (of his followers) along with him, another (apostle) and one or two persons (along with him) and (still another) apostle having no one with him. When a very large group was brought to me I conceived as if it were my Ummah. Then it was said to me: It is Moses and his people. You should look at the horizon, and I saw a very huge group. It was again said to me: See the other side of the horizon, and there was (also) a very huge group. It was said to me: This is your Ummah, and amongst them there were seventy thousand persons who would be made to enter Paradise without rendering any account and without (suffering) any torment. He then stood up and went to his house. Then the people began to talk about the people who would be admitted to Paradise without rendering any account and without (suffering) any torment. Some of them said: They may be those who (have had the good fortune of living) in the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and some of them said: They be those who were born in Islam and did not associate anything with Allah. Some people mentioned other things. Thereupon came forth the Messenger of Allah ﷺ before them and he said: What was that which you were talking about? They informed him. He said: They are those persons who neither practise charm, nor ask others to practise it, nor do they take omens, and repose their trust in their Lord. Upon this 'Ukkasha b. Mihsan stood up and said: Supplicate for me that He should make me one among them. Upon this he (Messenger of Allah) said: Thou are one among them. Then another man stood up and said: Supplicate before Allah that He should make me one among them. Upon this he said: 'Ukkisha has preceded you.

"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.'" Other chains report similar narrations.

[Machine] Which of you saw the passing comet last night? I said, "Me," then I said, "But I wasn't in prayer, I was bitten by a scorpion." He said, "And how did it happen?" I said, "I was stung." He asked, "What made you do that?" So I said, "A hadith that Al-Sha'bi narrated from Buraydah Al-Aslami, who said, 'There is no ruqyah (incantation) except from an evil eye or a scorpion sting.'" Sa'id, meaning Ibn Jubayr, said, "The one who reaches what he heard has done well." Then he said, "Ibn 'Abbas narrated to us from the Prophet ﷺ who said, 'The nations were shown to me, and I saw a prophet with a small group and a prophet with one or two individuals, and a prophet with no one with him. Then a great multitude was raised for me, so I said, 'This is my nation.' It was said, 'This is Musa and his nation. But look to the horizon.' So I looked and saw a great multitude. Then it was said to me, 'Look to the other side.' So I looked and saw a great multitude. It was said, 'This is your nation, and with them are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment.' Then the Prophet ﷺ rose and entered, and the people began to discuss the matter. They said, 'Who are these people who will enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment?' Some of them said, 'Perhaps they are those who accompanied the Prophet ﷺ .' Others said, 'Perhaps they are those who were born in Islam and never associated anything with Allah, and they mentioned some other things.' Then the Prophet ﷺ came out to them and said, 'What is it that you were discussing?' So they told him what they had said, and he said, 'They are those who do not ask for ruqyah or amulets, and they do not cauterize themselves or seek omens, rather they put their trust in their Lord.' Mu'adh bin Jabal Al-Ansari stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, am I one of them?' He said, 'Yes.' Then another man stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, am I one of them?' He said, 'Ukkashah got ahead of you.'"

[Machine] Most of the talk was around the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one night, and then we woke up on him and he said, "The prophets were presented to me with their nations." So, the Prophet ﷺ passed by with a group and the prophet ﷺ had a group with him, and the prophet ﷺ had a group with him, and the prophet ﷺ had a group with him, and there was no one with him until Moses passed by with him from the Bani Israel. So, I asked, "Who are these?" It was said: "This is your brother Moses and with him is the Children of Israel." So, I asked, "Where are my nation?" It was said: "Look to your right." So, I looked and saw the horizons filled with the faces of men. Then it was said to me, "Look to your left." So, I looked and saw the horizons filled with the faces of men. It was said to me, "Are you satisfied?" I said, "I am satisfied, O Lord, I am satisfied, O Lord!" It was said to me, "Indeed, with these (people) there are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without being held accountable." The Prophet ﷺ said, "They are a ransom for you and your parents, if you are able to be one of the seventy thousand, then do so. If you fall short, then be one of the Dustar (people of the horizon). And if you fall short (of that), then be one of the Afar (people of the wilderness). Indeed, I have seen people who are outnumbered." So, 'Ukkashah bin Mihsan Al-Asadi stood up and said, "Ask Allah to make me one of the seventy (thousand)." So, he supplicated for him. Another man stood up and said, "Ask Allah to make me one of them." He said, "Ukkashah has beaten you to it." He (the man) said: "Tell us who are the seventy thousand?" He (the Prophet) said: "They are those who do not seek Ruqyah (charms or spells), and do not believe in treating through a good or bad omen, nor do they get themselves branded (cauterized), and they put their trust (only) in their Lord."  

أَكْثَرُوا الْحَدِيثَ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ ثُمَّ غَدَوْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ بِأُمَمِهَا فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَمُرُّ وَمَعَهُ الثُّلَّةُ وَالنَّبِيُّ وَمَعَهُ الْعِصَابَةُ وَالنَّبِيُّ وَمَعَهُ النَّفَرُ وَالنَّبِيُّ وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُ أَحَدٌ حَتَّى مَرَّ عَلَيَّ مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ مَعَهُ كَبْكَبَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَأَعْجَبُونِي فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ؟ فَقِيلَ هَذَا أَخُوكَ مُوسَى وَمَعَهُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ قُلْتُ فَأَيْنَ أُمَّتِي قِيلَ انْظُرْ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا الظِّرَابُ قَدْ سُدَّ بِوُجُوهِ الرِّجَالِ ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِي انْظُرْ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا الْأُفُقُ قَدْ سُدَّ بِوُجُوهِ الرِّجَالِ فَقِيلَ لِي أَرَضِيتَ؟ قُلْتُ رَضِيتُ يَا رَبِّ رَضِيتُ يَا رَبِّ فَقِيلَ لِي إِنَّ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «فِدَاءٌ لَكُمْ أَبِي وَأُمِّي إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ تَكُونُوا مِنَ السَّبْعِينَ أَلْفًا فَافْعَلُوا فَإِنْ قَصَّرْتُمْ فَكُونُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الظِّرَابِ فَإِنْ قَصَّرْتُمْ فَكُونُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأُفُقِ؛ فَإِنِّي قَدْ رَأَيْتُ نَاسًا يَتَهَاوَشُونَ» فَقَامَ عُكَّاشَةُ بْنُ مِحْصَنٍ الْأَسَدِيُّ فَقَالَ ادْعُ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنَ السَّبْعِينَ فَدَعَا لَهُ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَقَالَ ادْعُ اللهَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ فَقَالَ «قَدْ سَبَقَكَ بِهَا عُكَّاشَةُ» قَالَ ثُمَّ تَحَدَّثْنَا فَقُلْنَا مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ السَّبْعُونَ الْأَلْفِ؟ قَوْمٌ وُلِدُوا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ حَتَّى مَاتُوا فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «هُمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَكْتَوُونَ وَلَا يَسْتَرْقُونَ وَلَا يَتَطَيَّرُونَ وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ»  

[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.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا عُرِضَ عَلِيَّ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ فَكَانَ يَجِيءُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَيْسَ مَعَهُ إِلَّا الرَّجُلُ وَيَجِيءُ النَّبِيُّ لَيْسَ مَعَهُ إِلَّا الرَّجُلَانِ وَيَجِيءُ النَّبِيُّ لَيْسَ مَعَهُ إِلَّا النَّفْرُ الْيَسِيرُ كَذَلِكَ ثُمَّ نَظَرْتُ فَرَأَيْتُ سَوَادًا كَثِيرًا فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُمْ أُمَّتِي فَلَمَّا دَنَوْا فَإِذَا هُمْ قَوْمُ مُوسَى ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِي انْظُرْ فَنَظَرْتُ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ؟ قَالَ فَقِيلَ هَؤُلَاءِ أُمَّتُكَ فَفَرِحْتُ لِذَلِكَ وَاسْتَبْشَرْتُ ثُمَّ قِيلَ انْظُرْ فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا سَوَادٌ كَثِيرٌ أَيْضًا فَقِيلَ هَؤُلَاءِ أُمَّتُكَ فَفَرِحْتُ وَاسْتَبْشَرْتُ فَقِيلَ لِي إِنَّ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا مِنْ أُمَّتِكَ يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ وَلَا عَذَابٍ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ السَّبْعُونَ الْأَلْفَ؟ فَأَجْمَعَ رَأْيِهِمْ عَلَى أَنَّهُ مَنْ وُلِدَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْ شَيْئًا مِنْ أَمْرِ الشِّرْكِ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «هُمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَكْتَوُونَ وَلَا يَسْتَرْقُونَ وَلَا يَتَطَيَّرُونَ وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ» فَقَامَ عُكَّاشَةُ فَقَالَ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ مِنْهُمْ» فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ فَقَالَ «سَبَقَكَ بِهَا عُكَّاشَةُ»
