I saw a great crowd and asked, ‘Jibril, are these my people?’ He said, ‘No, but look at the horizon.’ I looked and saw a great crowd. He said, ‘These are your people. In front of them are seventy thousand who will face neither reckoning nor punishment.’ I asked, ‘Why?’ He said, ‘They did not seek cauterisation or request ruqyah, did not take omens, and trusted their Lord.’” Ukkashah ibn Mihsan stood and said, “Ask Allah to make me one of them.” He replied, “Allah, make him one of them.” Another man stood and asked the same.
