Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 4622 — hadith 4621-4626

حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، ثَنَا عِيسَى ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى ، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ : يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا لَا حِسَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ ، فَقَالَ عُكَّاشَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ، ادْعُ اللهَ تَعَالَى أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ ، فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ مِنْهُمْ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ : ادْعُ اللهَ تَعَالَى أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ ، فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ مِنْهُمْ ، ثُمَّ سَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ سَاعَةً ، وَتَحَدَّثُوا ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : لَوْ قُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنَا مِنْهُمْ ، فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : سَبَقَكُمْ عُكَّاشَةُ وَصَاحِبُهُ ، إِنَّكُمْ لَوْ قُلْتُمْ لَقُلْتُ ، وَلَوْ قُلْتُ لَوَجَبَتْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There will be seventy thousand people of my Ummah who will enter Paradise without any reckoning." Hearing this, Sayyiduna Ukkashah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Prophet of Allah! Supplicate to Allah Almighty to include me too among these fortunate ones. He (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated: 'Allahumma ij'alhu minhum' (O Allah, include him among them). Then another man stood up and said: Supplicate to Allah Almighty to include me among them too. He (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for him as well: 'Allahumma ij'alhu minhum' (O Allah, include him among them). After this the people present remained silent for a while and then began talking among themselves; some of them said: If only we too had said: O Messenger of Allah! Supplicate to Allah to include us among them as well. At this he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ukkashah and his companion have gone ahead of you. The truth is that had you said it (in time), I would certainly have supplicated, and had I supplicated, it (acceptance) would have become binding."
In the chain of this narration, Muhammad bin Abi Layla is open to criticism because of his memory; however, the basic virtue of seventy thousand people entering Paradise without reckoning is established and authentic in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim through various chains.
