Eighty Rows!

 The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam disclosed the size of his own nation in Paradise when he said:

´´The people of Paradise will number one hundred and twenty rows; out of which eighty rows will be yours-´´244

He also said to his Companions one day:

´´By Him in Whose Hands my life is, I hope that you will be one-fourth of the people of Paradise.´´ The Companions shouted. ´´Allahu Akbar!´´

In joy and jubilation. He added: ´´I hope that you will be one-third of the people of Paradise,´´ Again, they shouted.. ´´Allahu Akbar!´´ He said: ´´I hope that you will be half of the people of Paradise.´´ They shouted: Allahu Akbar!´´ He further said in drawing a similitude of the multitude of his nation compared with other nations: ´´You are like a black hair in the skin of a white ox or like a white hair in the skin of a black ox. ´´245

He also mentioned that among the Prophets. he will have the largest followers of believers and disciples. He said:

´´I will be the first intercessor in the Paradise and no Prophet amongst the prophets has been testified (by such a large number of people) as I have been testified to. And verily there will be a Prophet among the Prophets who will be testified to by only one man from his people. ´´246
