Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We begin this episode with the words of Allah (Mighty and Majestic):[Al-Isra 17:23] This questioner says: What is the link in that, and the reason for the connection between the worship of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) and the rights of parents?
Answer:
[Al-Fatihah 1:1-2], and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The reason for the connection between the right of the parent and the right of Allah is that the right of the parent is confirmed upon his child, and that it comes after the right of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. What indicates its confirmation in the conscience of the child toward his parent is that it is a great right, and undutifulness to the parent is a major sin among the major sins, coming after shirk (associating partners with Allah) in terms of sin. This confirms the right of the parent and the attention paid to it, and the lack of negligence regarding it. Yes.
