The
Holy Quran has laid a good deal of stress on the obedience and service of
parents. When we think deeply about the outstanding place of the parents, it becomes evidently clear
that they are tremendous benefactors for us, as they are figuratively a pair of
components in the genesis machinery of the nature, and actually they are
instruments for the continuity of birth cycle. A man, as such, opens his eyes
in this brilliant world by the means of parents, and this instrumentality plays
a very vital role in the exaltation and veneration of the parents.
The
parents crave for a child, and through conjugal process, mother begins carrying
a new life within her feeble body and continues to do so for several months.
This new life grows from the parts of her body and thus becomes a part of her
body. This relationship of mother and child remains undisrupted even in
post-natal tenure. The mother, on one hand, leaves no stone unturned to fetch
her child all his requirements and remove from him all that may ail him, and
the father, on other hand, departs his home early in the morning to secure the
livelihood and returns back, employing all his vivacity and energy to procure
the necessary provision.
These
are the great benefactions, due to which Allah has mentioned the parents rights
immediately after the description of His rights.
"Your Lord has decreed that you
do not worship but Him and show kindness to the parents".
In
view of all those facts, you should always behave with them submissively and
respectfully and not give chance to any thing, unpleasant for them, or
injurious to their hearts. It is a fact that the age of superannuation reminds
a man of his feebleness and adenoma, and his feeling becomes very sharp.
Therefore you should not commit any dereliction in the service of parents and
not allow anything conducive to their reluctance.
Allah
says :
"If one of them or both of them
grow superannuated with you, don't express rue to them and don't repulse
them".

Dedicated to those scientists, who are inching towards the cognizance of the facts, spotlighted by Allah Almighty, in the wake of their intelligent observation for the top vertex of scientific achievement, which is not other than the "Disastrous end of the Universe". And this is probably during 15th century of Lunar calendar.
