a large group of his followers, and another prophet passing by with only a small group of people,
and another prophet passing by with only ten (persons), and another prophet passing by with only
five (persons), and another prophet passed by alone. And then I looked and saw a large multitude of
people, so I asked Gabriel, “Are these people my followers?’ He said, ‘No, but look towards the hori –
zon.’ I looked and saw a very large multitude of people. Gabriel said. ‘Those are your followers, and

accounts nor will receive any punishment.’ I asked, ‘Why?’ He said, ‘For they used not to treat them –
selves with branding (cauterization) nor with Ruqya (get oneself treated by the recitation of some
Verses of the Qur’an) and not to see evil omen in things, and they used to put their trust (only) in
their Lord.” On hearing that, ‘Ukasha bin Mihsan got up and said (to the Prophet), “Invoke Allah to
make me one of them.” The Prophet said, “O Allah, make him one of them.” Then another man got up
and said (to the Prophet), “Invoke Allah to make me one of them.” The Prophet said, ‘Ukasha has pre –
ceded you.”
