Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 9730 — One night we kept talking in the presence

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ثنا خَلَفُ بْنُ مُوسَى بْنِ خَلَفٍ الْعَمِّيُّ، ثنا أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، وَالْعَلَاءِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: تَحَدَّثْنَا ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى أَكْرَانَا الْحَدِيثُ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْنَا غَدَوْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: " عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ بِأَتْبَاعِهَا مِنْ أُمَّتِهَا، فَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَعَهُ الثُّلَّةُ مِنْ أُمَّتِهِ، وَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ لَيْسَ مَعَهُ أَحَدٌ، وَقَدْ أَنْبَأَكُمُ اللهُ عَنْ قَوْمِ لُوطٍ فَقَالَ {أَلَيْسَ مِنْكُمْ رَجُلٌ رَشِيدٌ} [هود: ٧٨] ، قَالَ: حَتَّى مَرَّ مُوسَى بْنُ عِمْرَانَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَبِّ، فَأَيْنَ أُمَّتِي؟ قَالَ: انْظُرْ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ، فَإِذَا الظِّرَابُ ظِرَابُ مَكَّةَ قَدْ سُدَّ مِنْ وُجُوهِ الرِّجَالِ، قَالَ: أَرَضِيتَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ؟ قُلْتُ: رَضِيتُ رَبِّ، قَالَ: انْظُرْ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ، فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا الْأُفُقُ قَدْ سُدَّ مِنْ وُجُوهِ الرِّجَالِ، قَالَ: أَرَضِيتَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ؟ قُلْتُ: رَضِيتُ رَبِّ، قَالَ: فَإِنَّ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ ". فَأَتَى عُكَّاشَةُ بْنُ مِحْصَنٍ الْأَسَدِيُّ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ، قَالَ: «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ مِنْهُمْ» ، ثُمَّ قَامَ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ، فَقَالَ: «سَبَقَكَ بِهَا عُكَّاشَةُ» ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ بِأَبِي أَنْتُمْ وَأُمِّي، أَنْ تَكُونُوا مِنَ السَّبْعِينَ فَكُونُوا، فَإِنْ عَجَزْتُمْ وَقَصَّرْتُمْ فَكُونُوا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الظِّرَابِ، فَإِنْ عَجَزْتُمْ وَقَصَّرْتُمْ فَكُونُوا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الْأُفُقِ؛ فَإِنِّي قَدْ رَأَيْتُ أُنَاسًا يَتَهَاوَشُونَ كَثِيرًا» ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ مَنْ يَتَّبِعُنِي مِنْ أُمَّتِي رُبْعَ الْجَنَّةِ» ، فَكَبَّرَ الْقَوْمُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ شَطْرَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ» ، فَكَبَّرَ الْقَوْمُ، ثُمَّ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {ثُلَّةٌ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَقَلِيلٌ مِنَ الْآخِرِينَ} [الواقعة: ١٤] ، فَتَذَاكَرُوا بَيْنَهُمْ: مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ السَّبْعُونَ الْأَلْفِ؟ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: قَوْمٌ وُلِدُوا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَمَاتُوا عَلَيْهِ، حَتَّى رُفِعَ الْحَدِيثُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «هُمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَسْتَرْقُونَ، وَلَا يَتَطَيَّرُونَ، وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ»
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: One night we kept talking in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) until our conversation (made us lose track of time and) kept us up late. In the morning we went early to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The prophets were shown to me with the followers from their nations. There was a prophet with whom was a large group of his nation, and there was a prophet with whom there was no one. And Allah has told you about the people of Lut, saying: 'Is there not among you a man of sound judgement?' [Hud: 78]." He said: "Until Musa bin Imran (peace be upon him) passed by, with the group of the Children of Israel who were with him. I said: O my Lord! Where is my Ummah? He said: Look to your right. And I saw that the hills of Makkah were filled with the faces of men. He said: Are you content, O Muhammad? I said: I am content, O my Lord. He said: Look to your left. I looked, and the horizon was filled with the faces of men. He said: Are you content, O Muhammad? I said: I am content, O my Lord. He said: And along with these there are seventy thousand (more) who will enter Paradise without reckoning."
Hearing this, Sayyiduna Ukkashah bin Mihsan al-Asadi (may Allah be pleased with him) came forward and said: O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah to make me one of them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed: "O Allah! Make him one of them." Then another man stood up and said: O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah to make me one of them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ukkashah has beaten you to it." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them: "May my father and mother be ransomed for you! If you are able to be among the seventy thousand, then be among them; if you are unable and fall short, then be among the people of the hills; and if you are unable and fall short in that too, then be among the people of the horizon, for I saw some people crowding together in great numbers." Then he said: "I hope that the followers of my Ummah will be a quarter of Paradise." At this the people said takbir (Allahu Akbar). Then he said: "I hope that they will be half of the people of Paradise." At this too the people said takbir. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: 'A large company of the earlier ones, and a few of the later ones' [Al-Waqi'ah: 14].
Then the people began discussing among themselves who these seventy thousand would be. Some said: They are people who were born in Islam and died upon it. Eventually the matter reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are those who do not seek ruqyah, do not take evil omens, and put their trust in their Lord."
