The good behaviour towards mother leads to exemption of sins and attaining jannah. Mother Aisha ( R A ) narrated n incident.

Harris bin nu'man was keeping good behaviour towards his mother. One day Rasulallah Muhammad ( SAW) said," I saw a scene in jannah,there i heard The voice of someone reciting Qur'an. I asked, whose voice is this ? told that The voice is of Harris bin nu'man. "

afterwards Muhammad (SAW) told to companions," this is the return of good behaviour with mother, this is the return of good behaviour with mother."

( mishkat almasabih,kitabul aadab)




companion abdullah bin amra narrated, one man came to rasulallah muhammad (SAW) and requested, " I have done a big sin, Is there any way to
tauba ?"
Muhammad (SAW) asked, " Do you have mother?"
he said, "no".
Muhammad (SAW) asked, do you have maternal aunt?"
he said , "yes".
MUhammad (SAW) said," do good behaviour towards her."

mother

In Islam mother holds the grade/position after Allah and rasulallah muhammad (SAW). Islam has guided to do good behaviour towards both mother and father and to urge what is their order because over a person, both have graces,but in Qu'ran the graces of mother are clearly depicted,at one place there is a narration,

"we have urged human beings that they do good behaviour with their parents.their mother has lifted weakness over weakness,kept in stomach and
at two years the milkbreeding was left.we have ordered that show my grace and believe the thankfullness of parents.You have to return only towards me ."

(surah lukman-13)

fadhaail-e-iyaadat (benefits of visiting sick)

In a narration,

Muhammad (SAW) said,"If a person does wudhu in good way afterwards the sole intension is to earn sawaab and visit- ask health of a sick muslim then what a person cuts distance in 60 years travel, the much is made away from hell.

Asma bint Abu Bakr relates that her mother had come from Makkah to Madinah to meet her. Her mother was not a Muslim and followed pagan tribal customs and beliefs. Asma enquired from the holy Prophet how she was supposed to treat her. The holy Prophet told her to be kind and considerate and to behave towards her as was a mother's due from a daughter. Obeying one's parents and treating them with respect and affection is a great virtue and it serves as repentence for a person's sins. Similarly, to ask Almighty Allah to have mercy on them after death is an act that brings them comfort in their graves. It is the duty of sons and daughters to pray for the forgiveness of their parents after their death and treat their relatives and friends with due respect. In the Holy Quran, Muslims have been urged to pray for the salvation of their parents as shown in the following verse: "And say, My Lord, Have mercy on both of them as they cared for me when I was little".

The holy Prophet has said that to abuse one's parents is a major sin. So much so that if a person abuses someone else's parents and that person, in retaliation, abuses his parents, then it is as though he himself has abused his parents. On another occasion, when asked about the major sins, the holy Prophet replied, "To associate someone with Almighty God, to disobey parents, to kill unlawfully, and to give false evidence".

In the light of the Holy Quran and holy Prophet's sayings, one can understand that the respect for parents occupies a special place in the moral and social teachings of Islam.


Allah knows the best. May Allah bless ummate Muhammad (SAW)

The biggest service of Muslim, over the creation of Allah, is the service of his/her parents in Islam. Allah has ordered, after the Claim of His worship there is claim of sevice to parents.

In Qur'an

And worship Allah and do not make partner with Him and do good behaviour with parents ( validens).

( Para - 15,surah israel)

In one hadith, the meaning that I understood ( aauzubillah)

" The child if sees the old period of parents - that means his/her parents are alive and if does not serve parents, then for such child Jibrael (alayhi wassalato assalam) did curse of disgrace and Muhammad (sallaallahu alayhi wasallam) by allah' order told Aamin on the curse.



service of elder brother


Muhammad (SAW) said, "The claim of elder brother over younger brothers,is like the claim of parents over their cildren."

(hadis)

Muhammad (SAW) has given guidance, "the person who does not mercy upon youngers and those youngers who does not respect their elders are not among us

(ibne abbas)

Thus, big brothers must do a gentle behaviour towards younger brothers and sisters.Younger brothers-sisters must respect elder brother. otherwise Muhammad (SAW) said, "those who do not do deed over my teachings - my instructions,I have no relation with them.

(hadis)


quoter is sinner too.may Allah bless me and ummate muslima.

respectable parents :

Allah (Glory and Greatness be to Him) says in Hadith al-Qudsi: I swear by My Glory and power that if a (child who is) disobedient to his parents comes to me with all the good deeds of all the prophets, I will not accept them from him.




Although our existence is from Allah (Glory and Greatness be to Him), it is our parents who are the means of giving us life. We are an offshoot of their existence and a fruit of the garden of their unparalleled affection, training, love and sentiments. When the forgetful human being grows up to become big and strong and comes to acquire a certain credibility (in life), he forgets the period wherein he was weak and lacking in strength. He disregards the exhaustive efforts of his parents; what ingratitude could be worse than this?

Humanity and ethics demand that we safeguard these two jewels (our mother and father) - by exhibiting goodness towards them while they are alive, and by means of charity and goodly remembrance after their death.

Our lives are an extension of our parent's lives while our children's lives are a continuation of ours. Our good behavior towards our parents and our exhibition of kindness towards them shall cause our children to grow up as grateful and righteous individuals. They shall behave with us just as we have behaved with our own parents.

Just as it is beyond our means to fulfill the rights of Allah (Glory and Greatness be to Him) and to thank Him for all His bounties in their entirety, similarly we can never thank our parents sufficiently for their efforts. The only thing that we can do is to acknowledge our inability and submit ourselves, in humility and reverence, before these two angels. However, comprehension of their status in the eyes of Allah (Glory and Greatness be to Him) paves the way to fulfill some of their numerous rights.

Allah knows best.
