Transferring the deceased mother to be buried in her homeland in accordance with her bequest

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner is from Britain and says: We live in Britain with our mother, and she is suffering from a severe illness. The doctors say that she is close to death. His question is: The mother asks us to bury her in Pakistan if she dies, and to transfer her there. Is it obligatory for us to obey her? Is this part of dutifulness to parents?

Answer:
If it is easy for you, then you carry out her will if it is easy for you. But if it is difficult for you, then bury her with the Muslims in any place. Yes.
