The Most Prominent Rights of Parents over Their Children
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Shaykh, what are the most prominent rights of parents over their sons and daughters toward their parents?
Answer:
The dutifulness obligatory upon the children, both male and female, is dutifulness to their parents, because the right of the parents comes after the right of Allah[An-Nisa 4:36] [Al-Isra 17:23] Excellence includes verbal excellence and practical excellence, such as serving them, providing for them, speaking kindly to them, and so on. Fulfilling their needs, serving them if they need service, all of this falls under dutifulness to parents. Yes.

Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good
وَاعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًاAnd your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment.
وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا
