Question:
Also, this person, may Allah preserve you, is asking about the rights of parents through Allah’s saying:
And your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Himوَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ
[Al-Isra 17:23]
He says, may Allah bless you: What are the rights of parents, and is the one who disobeys his parents outside the religion?

Answer:
The saying of Allah the Exalted, "And your Lord has decreed," means He has ruled and ordained, Glorified and Exalted is He:
that you worship not except Himأَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ
[Yusuf 12:40]
This is the right of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, to single Him out in worship. Then the right of the parents follows it, which indicates the emphasis, the emphasis, on the right of the parents, since Allah mentioned it after His right. Glorified and Exalted is He. So the right of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, is worship, and the right of the parents is dutifulness and kindness. Yes.

The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
