Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 37, Hadith 186
narrated that Rifa’ah Al-Juhani said: “We came back (from a campaign) with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he said: ‘By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, there is no person who believes then stands firm, but he will be caused to enter Paradise. I hope that they will not enter it until you and those who are righteous among your offspring will enter it and take up your dwelling places therein. And my Lord has promised me that seventy thousand of my nation will enter Paradise without being brought to account.’”
“ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يُؤْمِنُ ثُمَّ يُسَدَّدُ إِلاَّ سُلِكَ بِهِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَأَرْجُو أَلاَّ يَدْخُلُوهَا حَتَّى تَبَوَّءُوا أَنْتُمْ وَمَنْ صَلَحَ مِنْ ذَرَارِيِّكُمْ مَسَاكِنَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَلَقَدْ وَعَدَنِي رَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ ” .
Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 37, Hadith 186
Sahih (Darussalam)
The above hadith is from the Sunan Ibn Majah collection of hadiths. Sunan Ibn Majah is a foundational text, recognized as the sixth of the major hadith collections in Sunni Islam. The work of scholar Ibn Majah (d. 886 CE), it encompasses about 4,000 hadiths that provide guidance on a multitude of subjects. These subjects are crucial for Muslims and include the pillars of faith, the specifics of ritual observance, the development of personal ethics, and the navigation of social issues. The collection’s standing is one of respected importance with a caveat; it is typically viewed as containing a greater number of weak narrations than its five counterpart collections. This understanding necessitates a more critical approach from scholars, who still rely on it heavily for its breadth and content.
