It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: On the Day of Resurrection, Allah Almighty will say to Adam (peace be upon him):“Rise and separate from your progeny nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand for Hell and one for Paradise.”Upon hearing this, all the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them all) began to weep. After this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said to them:“Raise your heads! By Him in Whose hand is my soul! In comparison to other communities, the example of my community is like a white hair on the skin of a black ox.”Upon hearing this, the grief of the Companions was somewhat alleviated.
