Abu Hurairah reported that Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:
quote:
Who amongst you is observing fast this day? Abu Bakr said: I am. He (the Prophet) said: Who amongst you has followed the janazah (funeral) today? Abu Bakr said: I have. He (the Prophet) again said: Who amongst you has served food to the needy? Abu Bakr said: I have. He (the Prophet) said: Who amongst you has today visited the sick? Abu Bakr said: I have. Thereupon Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: He must get into Paradise who combines in himself (all these noble qualities and virtues).
  

Sahih Muslim, The Book of Virtues of the Companions, in the Chapter of the THE MERITS OF ABU BAKR SIDDIQ

Subhanak Allaahuma wa bihamdika ash-hadu anlaa illaaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk  

If I said anything correct, then it is from Allaah (subhanahu wa taa'ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
