Question:
This questioner sent a question about undutifulness to parents, saying: What is the way to repentance? And is repentance accepted in such a case if the parents have passed away?
Answer:
Undutifulness to parents is among the greatest of major sins after shirk (associating partners with Allah) (Mighty and Majestic). The right of the parents comes after the right of Allah. Undutifulness to parents is undoubtedly great and dangerous. If the parent is alive, you must seek his forgiveness, treat him well, and acknowledge your mistake before him. As for if the parent is dead, you must increase in supplication for him, seeking forgiveness for him, and giving charity on his behalf, so that perhaps Allah may alleviate that from you. Yes.
