Dutifulness to Parents from Afar
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Dahhan, or Dahhan Hasan 'Abd Allah, says: I am an expatriate and I wish to be dutiful to my parents, but I am unable to do so because of my distance and my lack of resources. What is the solution?
The Shaykh:
Correspond with them. Send them whatever kindness you can and fulfill their rights by sending it with a trustworthy person who will deliver it to them, or transfer it via the bank. Yes.
The questioner:
Is it part of being dutiful to them to stay in touch with them by phone, check on their well-being, and reassure them?
The Shaykh:
Yes, calling them on the phone, making du'a' for them, and reassuring them is a good thing. Yes.
