Which of the deeds takes one nearer to paradise?

'Abdullah b. Mas'ud (RadhiAllahu 'anhu) reported:

I said: Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam), which of the deeds (takes one) nearer to paradise?

He (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) replied: Prayer at its proper time,

I said: What next, Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam)?

He (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) replied: Kindness to the parents.

I said: What next?

He (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) replied: Jihad in the cause of Allah.
