[527] 374 - (220) Ḥuṣain bin 'Abdur-Raḥmân said: "I was with
Sa'eed bin Jubair and he said: 'Who among you saw the shooting star last night?' I said: 'I did.' Then I said: 'I was not praying, but I was stung (by a scorpion).' He said: 'What did you do?' I said: 'I asked someone to recite Ruqyah for me.' He said: 'What made you do that?' I said: 'A Hadīth which Ash-Sha'bī narrated to us.' He said: 'What did Ash-Sha'bī narrate to you?' I said: 'He narrated to us that Buraidah bin Ḥuṣaib Al-Aslamī said: "There should be no Ruqyah except for the evil eye or a sting." He said: 'He who acts according to what he has heard (from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ) has done well, but Ibn 'Abbās narrated to us that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The nations were shown to me and I saw a Prophet with a group of men, a Prophet with one or two men, and a Prophet accompanied by no one. Then a huge crowd was shown to me, and I thought that they were my Ummah, but it was said to me: 'This is Mūsā and his people. But look at the horizon.' I looked, and there was a huge crowd. Then it was said to me: 'Look at the other horizon,' and there was (another) huge crowd. It was said to me: 'This is your Ummah, and among them are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without being called to account or punished.'" Then he got up
and went into his house, and the people started discussing those who would enter Paradise without being called to account or being punished. Some of them said: "Perhaps they are the ones who always attended to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ." Some said: "Perhaps they are those who were born in Islam and did not associate anything with Allāh." And they mentioned several ideas. Then the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ came out and said: "What are you discussing?" They told him, and he said: "They are the ones who did not perform Ruqyah nor ask others to do so, and did not follow omens, and upon their Lord did they rely." 'Ukkāshah bin Mihṣan stood up and said: "Pray to Allāh to make me one of them." He said: "You will be one of them." Another man stood up and said: "Pray to Allāh to make me one of them." He said: " 'Ukkāshah has surpassed you to it."
