It is narrated on the authority of Abu Ayyub Ansari that once during the journey of the Prophet (may peace of Allah be upon him) a bedouin appeared before him and caught hold of the nosestring of his she-camel and then said, Messenger of Allah (or Muhammad), inform me about that which takes me near to Paradise and draws me away from the Fire (of Hell). He (the narrator) said:The Prophet (ﷺ) stopped for a while and cast a glance upon his companions and then said: He was afforded a good opportunity (or he had been guided well). He (the Holy Prophet) addressing the bedouin said: (Repeat) whatever you have uttered. He (the bedouin) repeated that. Upon this the Apostle (ﷺ) remarked: The deed which can draw you near to Paradise and take you away from Hell is, that you worship Allah and associate none with Him, and you establish prayer and pay Zakat, and do good to your kin. After having uttered these words, the Prophet asked the bedouin to release the nosestring of his she-camel.

(The Book of Faith)
Reference : Sahih Muslim 13 a
In-book reference : Book 1, Hadith 12
The content of this message narrated that we should worship ALLAH alone without any associate with him, furthermore you Pray, pay Zakat and be nice to your Kin. This will bring us closer to the Paradise and away from the fire, let us ķeep the habits.
May Allah in his ABUNDANCE give us a heart that will be able to this, Amen.
