2441. Abû Hurairah said: "I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: 'Whoever spends on a pair of things in the cause of Allâh, he will be called from the gates of Paradise: O slave of Allâh, this is good for you. Paradise has (several) gates. Whoever is one of the people of Salâh, he will be called from the gate of prayer. Whoever is one of the people of Jihâd, will be called from the gate of Jihâd. Whoever is one of the people of charity will be called from the gate of charity. And whoever is one of the people of fasting will be called from the gate of Ar-Rayyân.'" Abû Bakr said: "Is there any need for anyone to be called from all of these gates? Will anyone be called from all of them, O Messenger of Allâh?" He said: "Yes, and I hope that you will be among them." (Sahîh)
