عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم من أصبح منكم اليوم صائما قال أبو بكر أنا قال فمن تبع منكم اليوم جنازة قال أبو بكر أنا قال فمن اطعم منكم اليوم مسكينا قال أبو بكر انا قال فمن عاد منكم اليوم مريضا قال أبو بكر أنا فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ما اجتمعن في امرئ الا دخل الجنة (مسلم 2/274)
Hadhrat Abu Hurayrah (Radhiallahu Anhu) narrates that once Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) enquired from the Sahaabah (Radhiallahu Anhum): “Who amongst you is fasting today?” Hadhrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq (Radhiallahu Anhu) replied: “I am fasting today.” Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) then enquired: “Who amongst you had visited the sick today?” Hadhrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq (Radhiallahu Anhu) replied: “I had visited a sick person today.” Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) further enquired: “Which of you had participated in a Janaazah today?” Hadhrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq (Radhiallahu Anhu) replied: “I had participated in a Janaazah today.” Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) then asked, “Which of you has fed a poor person today?” Hadhrat Abu Bakr (Radhiallahu Anhu) replied: “I have fed a poor person today.”
Thereafter, Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “The one who possesses all these qualities will definitely enter Jannah.”
