Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Seventy thousand from my Ummah will enter Paradise without reckoning." Ukasha bin Mihsan (may Allah be pleased with him) requested: Pray to Allah that He makes me among them. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah! Make him among them." Then another person requested: Pray to Allah that He makes me among them. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ukasha has preceded you in this."
