My old Father - A Touching Story

 

A very touching story about a old father and his son. How 
much our parents loves us , do we love and respect them 
as much?

Allah Ta'ala tells us in the Qur'an how to treat our parents.

''And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good)
to his parents... - give thanks to Me and to Your parents.
                                                      Surah Luqman 31: 14

First of all, we must thank Allah, Our Creator and after
Him, He has ordered us to thank our parents. Again in 
another verse Allah ta'ala has ordered us to show kindness
to parents.

''Your Lord has commanded that you worship none
else but Him and treat parents well. If one of them 
or both attain old age, say not even 'fie' to them, or
be rude to them, but talk to them respectfully. Be
polite and soft to them and pay obedience to them
and pray thus:

رَبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبّيَانِى صَغِيراً
''Lord ! Have mercy on them both, just as 
they had brought me up with love and 
kindness, when I was a child.''
                                        Al-Isra 17 : 23-24

Allah Ta'ala has commanded us to make this dua for
our parent, so lets learn this dua and read it everyday
for them , Allah Ta'ala will reward our parents when
we make this dua for them inshaAllah

And Our beloved Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم has told us in
many Ahadith how we should treat our parents and
respect them.


Abdullah ibn Umar رضى الله عنهما related that Nabi
صلى الله عليه وسلم said, '' The pleasure of the Lord is
in the pleasure of the father and the displeasure
of the Lord is in the displeasure of the father.''                                    
                                                                                   (Tirmizi)


Abdullah ibn Abbas رضى الله عنهما stated that the
Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said, If a good
son looks with love and kindness on his father and
mother, Allah writes to his credit one accepted
Hajj, for each such look.''
                                                             (Baihaqi)
