SUMMARY: The best acts are to pray at their fixed times, be dutiful to parents, and strive in the way of Allah.

Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I asked the Messenger of Allah : "Which act is the best?" He said, "As-Salat at their fixed times". I asked, "What next?" He said, "Being dutiful to parents". I asked, "What next?" He said, "Striving (Jihad) in the way of Allah". Al-Bukhari and Muslim.

This means that one should respect their parents and take care of them when they need help or support. Lastly, striving in the way of Allah means doing good deeds for the sake of God and helping others who are less fortunate than us.
