And whoever is among the people of Salat, he will be called from the gate of Salat, and whoever was among from the people of Jihad, he will be called from the gate of Jihad. And whoever was among the people of charity, then he will be called from the gate of charity, and whoever was from the people of fasting, then he will be called from the gate of Ar-Rayyan. So Abu Bakr said: May my father and mother be ransomed for you! The one who is called from these gates will be free of all worries. But will anyone be called from all of those gates? He (ﷺ) said: Yes, and I hope that you are among them.
