Reading the statement of Imam al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) regarding what he transmitted: "

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The reciter: The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "The chapter on the prohibition of undutifulness to parents and severing family ties:
Allah the Exalted said:

⁽²²⁾ So would you perhaps, if you turned away, cause corruption on earth and sever your [ties of] relationship? ⁽²³⁾ Those [who do so] are the ones that Allah has cursed, so He deafened them and blinded their vision.

فهل عسيتم إن توليتم أن تفسدوا في الأرض وتقطعوا أرحامكم أولئك الذين لعنهم الله فأصمهم وأعمى أبصارهم

[Muhammad 47:22-23]

.
And He said:

But those who break the covenant of Allah after contracting it and sever that which Allah has ordered to be joined and spread corruption on earth - for them is the curse, and they will have the worst home.

والذين ينقضون عهد الله من بعد ميثاقه ويقطعون ما أمر الله به أن يوصل ويفسدون في الأرض أولئك لهم اللعنة ولهم سوء الدار

[Ar-Ra'd 13:25]

.
And He said:

⁽²³⁾ And your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment. 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."

وقضى ربك ألا تعبدوا إلا إياه وبالوالدين إحسانًا إما يبلغن عندك الكبرَ أحدهما أو كلاهما فلا تقل لهما أفٍ ولا تنهرهما وقل لهما قولا كريماً * واخفض لهما جناح الذل من الرحمة وقل رب ارحمهما كما ربياني صغيراً

[Al-Isra 17:23-24]

.
And Abu Bakrah, Nu'aym ibn al-Harith (may Allah be pleased with him), said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said thrice, "Shall I not inform you of the biggest of the great sins?" We said, "Yes, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)" He said, "To join partners in worship with Allah: to be undutiful to one's parents." The Prophet (ﷺ) sat up after he had been reclining and added, "And I warn you against giving forged statement and a false witness; I warn you against giving a forged statement and a false witness." The Prophet kept on saying that warning till we thought that he would not stop.

ألا أنبئكم بأكبر الكبائر ؟ ثلاثا ، قلنا: بلى يا رسول الله ، قال: الإشراك بالله ، وعقوق الوالدين ، وكان متكئا فجلس فقال: ألا وقول الزور وشهادة الزور ، فما زال يكررها حتى قلنا : ليته سكت
