Ibn Mas'ud narrated: "I asked the Prophet ﷺ: 'Which deeds are most beloved to Allah?' He said: 'The prayer at its appointed time.' I then asked: 'What after that?' He replied: 'Being good to one's parents.' I asked again: 'What after that?' He replied: 'Jihad in the way of Allah.' He then told me these and said: 'If I had asked more, he would have added more.'"
