The answer

None of the ten promised Paradise were mentioned by name in the Qur’an. However, there are verses that refer to Abu Bakr al-Siddiq without explicitly mentioning his name, including His saying, the Most High: (And the most righteous one will be removed far from it – He who gives his wealth [in charity] to purify himself) [Al-Layl: 17-21], and His saying: (And let not those among you who are endowed with grace and amplitude swear not to give to kinsfolk) [Al-Nur: 22], and His saying: (The second of two, when they were in the cave and he said to his companion, "Do not grieve") [Al-: 40]. Also among those promised Paradise are the Companions of the Pledge of Allegiance under the Tree (Bay’at al-Ridwan) and the people of Badr. Allah, the Most High, said: (Certainly was Allah pleased with the believers when they pledged allegiance to you under the tree, and He knew what was in their hearts) [Al-Fath: 18].
