Fasting, Following the Bier, Visiting the Sick and Giving Sadaqa in One Day »Abu Huraira [ra] reported that Allah's Messenger (Peace and blessings be upon Him) said: "Who amongst you is observing fast this day? Abu Bakr said: It me. He (again) said: Who amongst you has followed the bier today? Abu Bakr said: It me. He (the Holy Prophet -pbuh-) again said: Who amongst you has served food to the needy? Abu Bakr said: It is me. He (again) said: Who amongst you has today visited the sick? Abu Bakr said: It me. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (Peace and blessings be upon Him) said: He must enter Paradise who combines in himself (all these noble qualities and virtues)." «([1]) ------------------------------- ([1]) Sahih Muslim – Kitab al-Zakat (8201).
