وَلَئِن سَأَلْتَهُم مَّنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ لَيَقُولُنَّ اللَّـهُ ۚ قُلْ أَفَرَأَيْتُم مَّا تَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِ اللَّـهِ إِنْ أَرَادَنِيَ اللَّـهُ بِضُرٍّ هَلْ هُنَّ كَاشِفَاتُ ضُرِّهِ أَوْ أَرَادَنِي بِرَحْمَةٍ هَلْ هُنَّ مُمْسِكَاتُ رَحْمَتِهِ ۚ قُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّـهُ عَلَيْهِ يَتَوَكَّلُ الْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ*"And were you to ask them, 'Who created the heavens and the earth?' They would surely say, 'Allah.' Say, ‘Then have you considered what you invoke besides Allah? Should Allah desire some harm for me, can they remove His Harm? Or, should He desire some mercy for me, can they withhold His Mercy?’ Say, ‘Allah is sufficient for me. In Him, let the trusting put their trust.’" (al-Zumar, 39:38)

لَآ إِكْرَاهَ فِى ٱلدِّينِ ۖ قَد تَّبَيَّنَ ٱلرُّشْدُ مِنَ ٱلْغَىِّ ۚ فَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِٱلطَّـٰغُوتِ وَيُؤْمِنۢ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدِ ٱسْتَمْسَكَ بِٱلْعُرْوَةِ ٱلْوُثْقَىٰ لَا ٱنفِصَامَ لَهَا ۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ
There is no compulsion in religion: rectitude has become distinct from error. So one who disavows fake deities and has faith in Allah has held fast to the firmest handle for which there is no breaking; and Allah is all-hearing, all-knowing.Holy Quran 2:256

"the best deeds are those done regularly, even if they are small" - Prophet Muhammad (saws)
Saying Salam upon entering home A person came to the Prophet (saws.) and complained of poverty and straitening of sustenance. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) told him:
When you enter your house, say 'Salam' whether there is someone therein or not. Then recite Surah Tawheed, once. The man did as advised and Allah gave him so much that he even passed some of it to his neighbors.[8] Tibb al-Aaimma, As-Sayyid Shubbar, pg. 524
