The ruling on moving far away from one's parents

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah the Exalted reward you with good. This questioner says: I was transferred to a job in a city other than the one where my parents live. Is this considered undutifulness to parents, even though it is possible to work near them?

Answer:
If you are able to work near them, then you should seek a transfer to work near them and be with them, accompanying them. If you are unable to do so, then you are excused, but you should visit them from time to time, speak to them on the telephone, and maintain contact with them. Yes.
