Guidance on Raising One's Voice at One's Mother

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner is asking about her dealings with her mother. She says that she raises her voice at her mother without meaning to, and she sighs out of frustration due to the pressures of school and the pressures of life. What is the guidance? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
She is required to train herself to lower her gaze and lower her voice toward her parents, and not to raise her voice at them. Allah the Exalted said:
say not to them [so much as], "uff," and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word.فَلَا تَقُل لَّهُمَا أُفٍّ وَلَا تَنْهَرْهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوْلًا كَرِيمًا
[Al-Isra 17:23]
So she should repent to Allah and ask her parents for forgiveness. Yes.
