Sahih al-Bukhari 5970
Narrated Al-Walid bin 'Aizar:
I heard Abi `Amr 'Ash-Shaibani saying, "The owner of this house." he pointed to `Abdullah's house, 
"said, 'I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) 'Which deed is loved most by Allah?" He replied, 'To offer prayers at their 
early (very first) stated times.' " `Abdullah asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 
"To be good and dutiful to one's parents," `Abdullah asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?" The 
Prophet (ﷺ) said, "To participate in Jihad for Allah's Cause." `Abdullah added, "The Prophet (ﷺ) narrated to me 
these three things, and if I had asked more, he would have told me more."
