Translation
Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
“A Man will enter Jannah. Every inhabitant [in the various rooms/stages] of Jannah will be welcoming him saying, ‘Come to us, Come to us.’ Abu Bakr (radiyallahu ‘anhu) said, ‘O Rasulullah! On that day this man will have no regrets/will not be at a loss.’. Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, ‘Most certainly, and you will be this man O Abu Bakr.’
