Sunan Abi Dawud 4746 (Book 42, Hadith 151) #25037
The Greatness of the Pond

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was with a group of people and he said that the number of people who will come down to him at the pond is much greater than their current number.

Narrated Zayd ibn Arqam: We were with the Messenger of Allah . He said when we arrived at a halting place: You are not a hundred thousandth part of those who will come down to me at the pond. I (the narrator Abu Hamzah) asked: What was your number that day? He replied: Seven or eight hundred.
حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ النَّمَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ، قَالَ ‏:‏ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَنَزَلْنَا مَنْزِلاً فَقَالَ ‏:‏ ‏ "‏ مَا أَنْتُمْ جُزْءٌ مِنْ مِائَةِ أَلْفِ جُزْءٍ مِمَّنْ يَرِدُ عَلَىَّ الْحَوْضَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ قُلْتُ ‏:‏ كَمْ كُنْتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ ‏:‏ سَبْعَمِائَةٍ أَوْ ثَمَانَمِائَةٍ
