Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions:
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) quoted: "The chapter on dutifulness to parents and maintaining family ties:
Allah the Exalted said:
Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the neighbor farther away, the companion at your side, the traveler, and those whom your right hands possess
واعبدوا الله ولا تشركوا به شيئا وبالوالدين إحساناً وبذي القربى واليتامى والمساكين والجار ذي القربى والجار الجُنُب والصاحب بالجنب وابن السبيل وما ملكت أيمانكمAnd He said:
And fear Allah, through whom you ask one another, and the wombs

And those who join that which Allah has ordered to be joined

And We have enjoined upon man goodness to parents
ووصينا الإنسان بوالديه حسناAnd He said:

Whether one or both of them reach old age [while] with you, say not to them [so much as], "uff," and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word. (24) And lower to them the wing of humility out of mercy and say, "My Lord, have mercy upon them as they brought me up [when I was] small."

And We have enjoined upon man [care] for his parents. His mother carried him, [increasing her] in weakness upon weakness, and his weaning is in two years. Be grateful to Me and to your parents
ووصينا الإنسان بوالديه حملته أمه وهناً على وهن وفصاله في عامين أن اشكر لي ولوالديكAnd from Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), he said:
I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): "Which action is dearest to Allah?" He (ﷺ) replied, "Performing As-Salat (the prayer) at its earliest fixed time." I asked, "What is next (in goodness)?" He (ﷺ) said, "Kindness towards parents." I asked, "What is next (in goodness)?" He (ﷺ) said, "To participate in Jihad in the Cause of Allah."
سألتُ النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أي العمل أحب إلى الله تعالى ؟ قال: الصلاة على وقتها، قلتُ ثم أي؟ قال: بر الوالدين، قلت: ثم أي؟ قال: الجهاد في سبيل اللهAnd from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
