The Ruling on Raising One's Voice to One's Parents

Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, what falls under undutifulness to parents? I have a father who does not hear well, so I raise my voice to him so that he can hear.

Answer:
Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said: . Do not raise your voice to them without need. However, if raising your voice, as you mentioned, is out of need—namely, that he does not hear—then there is nothing wrong with it. You did not intend it, nor did you intend to raise your voice (peace and blessings be upon him), but rather you intended to make him hear your words. He may need this. This is not undutifulness. Dutifulness to parents includes lowering one's voice, being humble toward them, spending on them, obeying them in what is not disobedience, and other such matters. Yes.
