Sahih Muslim 1028 (Book 12, Hadith 111) #9510
The Path to Paradise

SUMMARY: Doing good deeds such as fasting, following a bier, feeding the poor and visiting an invalid will lead to paradise.

Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah said: Who fasted among you today? Abu Bakr (Allah be pleased with him) replied: I did. He (the Prophet again) said: Who among you followed a bier today? Abu Bakr (Allah be pleased with him) replied: I did. He (the Prophet again) said: Who among you fed a poor man today? Abu Bakr (Allah he pleased with him) replied: I did. He (again) said: Who among you visited an invalid today? Abu Bakr (Allah be pleased with him) said: I did. Upon this the Messenger of Allah said: Anyone in whom (these good deeds) are combined will certainly enter paradise.
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ، - يَعْنِي الْفَزَارِيَّ - عَنْ يَزِيدَ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ كَيْسَانَ - عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ الأَشْجَعِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ مَنْ أَصْبَحَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ صَائِمًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رضى الله عنه أَنَا ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَمَنْ تَبِعَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ جَنَازَةً ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رضى الله عنه أَنَا ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَمَنْ أَطْعَمَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ مِسْكِينًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رضى الله عنه أَنَا ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَمَنْ عَادَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ مَرِيضًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رضى الله عنه أَنَا ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ مَا اجْتَمَعْنَ فِي امْرِئٍ إِلاَّ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how doing good deeds can lead one to paradise. It was narrated by Abu Huraira and Abu Bakr, who were companions of the Prophet Muhammad. The Prophet asked if anyone had fasted that day, followed a bier, fed a poor man or visited an invalid. When Abu Bakr replied that he had done all of these things, the Prophet said that anyone who does these things will enter paradise. This teaches us that we should strive to do good deeds in our lives in order to gain Allah's pleasure and enter paradise. We should also remember those less fortunate than us by helping them out when we can - whether it be through feeding them or visiting them when they are ill - as this is what Allah wants from us.
