مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 3988

It was narrated from Abdullah bin Mas'ood that he said: We talked a great deal in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) one night, then we came to him the following morning and he said: "The Prophets were shown to me last night with their nations and their followers from among their nations. A Prophet came past with three people of his nation, and another with a small group of his nation, and another with a few followers of his nation, and another with one man of his nation, and another with no one with him from his nation, until Moosa bin 'Imran passed by me with a company of the Children of Israel, and when I saw them they impressed me. I said: O Lord, who are these? He said: This is your brother Moosa bin 'Imran, and those with him are the Children of Israel. I said: O Lord, where is my ummah? He said: Look to your right. I looked and I saw the hills, the hills of Makkah, covered with the faces of men. I said: Who are these, O Lord? He said: Your ummah. I said: I am pleased, my Lord. He said: Are you pleased? I said: Yes. He said: Look to your left. So I looked, and I saw the horizon covered with the faces of men. He said: Are you pleased? I said: i am pleased, It was said: And verily with these are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without being brought to ccount." Then 'Ukkashah bin Mihsan stood up and said: O Prophet of Allah, pray to Allah to make me one of them. He said: "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 said " 'Ukkashah beat you to it."
