"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 Jibrîl, are these my ummah?" He said, "No, but look at the horizon." So I looked, and saw a huge multitude of people. Jibrîl 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 ruqyâ (charms) and they did not see evil omens in things (i.e they were not superstitious): they put their trust only in their Rabb"". 'Ukâsha ibn Mihsan stood up and said, "Pray to Allâh (swt) to make me one of them". The Prophet (saw) said, "O Allâh (swt) make him one of them". Then another man stood up and said, "Ask Allâh (swt) to make me one of them". The Prophet (saw) said, 'Ukâsha has preceded you". (Sahîh al-Bukhâri, Kitâb ar-Riqâq, Bâb Yadhkul al-Jannah Sab'un Alfan bi Ghayri Hisâb, Fath al-Bâri, 11/405)
