It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: I requested my Lord, and He promised me that He would admit seventy thousand people from my Ummah into Paradise, shining and radiant like the full moon of the fourteenth night. I requested my Lord for further increase in this, so He added seventy thousand with each thousand. I asked, "O Lord, what if these people are not from the emigrants of my Ummah?" (If the number of emigrants is less?) Allah said: Then I will complete this number from the villagers.
