ثَلَاثٌ دَرَجَاتٌ وَ ثَلَاثٌ کَفَّارَاتٌ وَ ثَلَاثٌ مُوبِقَاتٌ وَ ثَلَاثٌ مُنْجِیَاتٌ:

فَأَمَّا الدَّرَجَاتُ فَإِفْشَاءُ السَّلَامِ وَ إِطْعَامُ الطَّعَامِ وَ الصَّلَاهُ بِاللَّیْلِ وَ النَّاسُ نِیَامٌ ...

There are three things that elevate one's rank, three that expiate sins, three that destroy, and three that save.

As for those that elevate rank: Saying greetings (Salam) openly, feeding with food, and praying at night while people are asleep.

Al-Khisal,Book 3,Hadith 10
