It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Seventy thousand individuals from my Ummah will enter Paradise without reckoning; their faces will be like the moon on the night of Badr, and their hearts will be like the heart of a single man. When I asked my Lord for more, He added seventy thousand more with each one of them." Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I think this will reach the people of the towns and extend to the outskirts of the villages.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "I asked Allah Almighty for intercession on behalf of my Ummah. Allah Almighty said to me: Seventy thousand people from your Ummah will enter Paradise without reckoning. I said: O Allah! Increase for me. Allah Almighty said: I grant you as many more." Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, scooped with his hands in front of him and to his right (as a way of illustration).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "From Allah's earth, His chosen land is the land of Sham, and in Sham there are many servants of Allah who are beloved to Allah, and in my Ummah there is also a group who will enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment."
