Qur'an states: ''He being the second of the two, When they were in the cave and when Muhammad said to his companion 'Grieve not, surely God is with us,' then God came to their help, and protected them with an army which they saw not'' [9:40]
Its agreed upon that this verse is talking about Prophet [s] and Abu Bakr [ra], when they were in cave of Thawr, and Qureish were searching to kill them.

[2] The following verses in the Sura 'Al-Lail' refer to Abu Bakr: ''Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification and have in their minds no favor from any one, for which a reward is expected in return, but only the desire to seek the countenance of their Lord, Most High and soon will they attain complete satisfaction.'' [92:18-21] Check Tafsir books for detail.

[3] Narated By Abu Said Al-Khudri : Allah's Apostle addressed the people saying, ''Allah has given option to a slave to choose this world or what is with Him. The slave has chosen what is with Allah.'' Abu Bakr wept, and we were astonished at his weeping caused by what the Prophet mentioned as to a Slave (of Allah) who had been offered a choice, (we learned later on) that Allah's Apostle himself was the person who was given the choice, and that Abu Bakr knew best of all of us. Allah's Apostle added, ''The person who has favored me most of all both with his company and wealth, is Abu Bakr. If I were to take a Khalil other than my Lord, I would have taken Abu Bakr as such, but (what relates us) is the Islamic brotherhood and friendliness. All the gates of the Mosque should be closed except the gate of Abu Bakr.'' [Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim hadith-5869]
Similar hadith has narrated from Abu Hurayhah, Ibn Mas'ud, Ibn Zubair and Ibn Abbas.

[11] Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: While I was standing amongst the people who were invoking Allah for Umar bin Al-Khattab who was lying 
on his bed, a man behind me rested his elbows on my shoulder and said, ''(O 'Umar!) May Allah bestow His Mercy on you. I always hoped that Allah will keep you with your two companions, for I often heard Allah's Apostle saying, ''I, Abu Bakr and 'Umar were (somewhere). I, Abu Bakr and 'Umar did (something). I, Abu Bakr and 'Umar set out.' So I hoped that Allah will keep you with both of them.'' I turned back to see that the speaker was Ali bin Abi Talib. [Sahih Bukhari (57.26)]
