It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty has promised me that He will admit seventy thousand individuals from my Ummah into Paradise without reckoning. Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Yazid bin Akhnas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah! This number in your Ummah is just like the small number of yellow bees among the common bees. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: My Lord has promised me seventy thousand, and with every thousand, He has promised an additional seventy thousand, and on top of that, there are three handfuls of Allah Almighty besides this number.
