Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to us while he was leaning against a tent made of leather. Then he said: "To proceed! Are you pleased that you will be one fourth of the people of Paradise?" We said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Him in Whose Hand is my soul, I hope that you will be half of the people of Paradise, and only a Muslim will enter Paradise. On the Day of Resurrection, in comparison to the disbelievers, the number of Muslims will be like a white hair on the body of a black ox, or a black hair on the body of a white ox."
