Sahih al-Bukhari 5585 (Book 77, Hadith 29)

Narrated Abu Huraira: I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying “From among my followers, a group (o 70,000) will enter Paradise
without being asked for their accounts, Their faces will be shining like the moon.” ‘Ukasha bin
Muhsin Al-Asadi got up, lifting his covering sheet and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) Invoke Allah for me
that He may include me with them.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said! “O Allah! Make him from them.” Then another
man from Al-Ansar got up and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Invoke Allah for me that He may include me
with them.” On that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “‘Ukasha has anticipated you.”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏”‏ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي زُمْرَةٌ هِيَ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا، تُضِيءُ وُجُوهُهُمْ إِضَاءَةَ الْقَمَرِ ‏”‏‏.‏ فَقَامَ عُكَاشَةُ بْنُ مِحْصَنٍ الأَسَدِيُّ يَرْفَعُ نَمِرَةً عَلَيْهِ قَالَ ادْعُ اللَّهَ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏”‏ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ مِنْهُمْ ‏”‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏”‏ سَبَقَكَ عُكَاشَةُ ‏”‏‏.‏
