Question:
This questioner asks and says: What is the difference between being dutiful to the father and being dutiful to the mother?
Answer:
There is no difference between them; both are [obligatory], but dutifulness to the mother is greater, much greater, and more emphasized, because she carried him, nursed him, and… took care of him as an infant in her lap and carried him. So she has a greater right over her child. The mother has four rights, and the father has one right. Yes.
