3667. Abū Sa‘eed Al-Khudrī narrated that Abū Bakr said: “Am I not the most deserving of it among the people, am I not the first to become Muslim, am I not the person of such and such, am I not the person of such and such.” (Sahih)
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth [is Gharīb] some of them reported it from Shu‘bah from Al-Jurairī, from Abū Naḍrah, that he said: “Abū Bakr said.” And this is more correct.
(Another chain) from Abū Nadrāh that he said: "Abū Bakr said." Then he mentioned similar to it in meaning, and he did not mention: 'From Abū Sa'eed' in it, and this is more correct.

Commentary
He is the only true and real successor of the Prophet ﷺ who is first to acknowledge his call and follow him, and remain steadfast throughout his life, and spend all his skills and efforts to make his mission successful. It is obvious that Abū Bakr was the only person who had these qualities.
