English translation

527. Narrated 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه: I asked the Prophet ﷺ "Which deed is the dearest to Allāh?" He replied, "To perform the (daily compulsory) Ṣalāt (prayers) at their (early) stated fixed times." I asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?" He replied, "To be good and dutiful to your parents." I again asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?" He replied, "To participate in Jihād (religious fighting) in Allāh's Cause." 'Abdullāh added, "These were told by the Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and if I had asked more, the Prophet ﷺ would have told me more." [See Hadīth No.7534, Vol.9].
