It is Compulsory to be Dutiful and Good to One's Parents
Question :
O noble Shaikh, my children disobey me and don't perform the slightest of duties owed to me or to their mother even though she is old and has poor sight. Please advise them and clarify for them the rights of parents.
Answer:
It is compulsory upon children to obey their parents in A what is good, to be kind and dutiful to them and to avoid disobeying them in what does not contradict the Shari'ah. Allah Almighty says:
"And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents."
"And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents. His mother bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, and his weaning is in two years - give thanks to Me and to your parents, unto Me is the final destination."
Someone asked the Prophet ﷺ, "Which is the most virtuous deed?" He ﷺ said,
"Salah on time."
"Then what?" The Prophet ﷺ said,
"Dutifulness to both parents."
"Then what?"
"Fighting in the way of Allah."
Its authenticity is agreed upon.
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ also said,
"Shall I not inform you of the worst of the major sins?" His Companions said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He ﷺ said,
Associating partners with Allah, disobeying parents."
he ﷺ was reclining, then he sat up and said:
"And false speech, rather, false testimony."
There are a number of verses in the Qur'an and sayings of the Prophet that mention the importance of duty and obedience to parents. And may Allah guide us to the truth.
