Bukhaari reports from Ibn Abbaas that the Prophet (saw) said, I was shown the nations, and I saw a Prophet pass by with a group of his people, and another with a band of his people, another with only ten, another with five, and another on his own (with no followers). Then I looked and saw a large crowd of people. I asked, O Jibreel, are these my ummah? He said, No, but look at the horizon. So I looked, and saw a huge multitude of people. Jibreel said, These are your ummah, and those seventy thousand in front will not be called to account or punished. I asked, Why? He said, They did not treat themselves with branding (cauterisation) or with ruqyaa (charms) and they did not see evil omens in things (i.e they were not superstitious): they put their trust only in their Rabb. Ukaasha ibn Mihsan stood up and said, Pray to Allah (swt) to make me one of them. The Prophet (saw) said, O Allah (swt) make him one of them. Then another man stood up and said, Ask Allah (swt) to make me one of them. The Prophet (saw) said, Ukaasha has preceded you. O Allah makes us amongst the Al Muqaraboon. Aameen Ya Rabil Arshe E Adheem!
