Offer Prayers At Their Early Stated Fixed Times , Be Good And Dutiful To Your Parents , Participate In Jihad In Allah's Cause .

This hadith narrated by Abdullah bin Masud explains the best deeds according to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. He said that offering prayers at their early stated fixed times is the best deed. This means that Muslims should pray five times a day as prescribed in Islam. After this, he said that being good and dutiful to one’s parents is next in goodness. Parents are very important in Islam and it is essential for children to be kind and respectful towards them. Lastly, he said that participating in jihad for Allah’s cause is also a great deed. Jihad does not necessarily mean physical fighting but can also refer to striving hard for something or making an effort towards achieving something beneficial for oneself or others around them such as helping those who are less fortunate than us or working hard on our studies so we can get better grades etc..
