Dignity of mother!

Dear Islamic brothers! Mother is a unique gift of Allah عزوجل. The dignity of mother has been mentioned in the Holy Quran and Ahadees. One who obeys his mother succeeds in attaining the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Mother sacrifices her comfort for the comfort of her children. Child’s body is formed from Mother’s blood. For many years Mother lulls her child to sleep by patting him. Mother grows restless and weeps when she sees her child sick. Mother spends the whole night awake for the sake of her sick child even in very cold winter. Mother wanders in expensive hospitals and clinics for the sake of her sick child. Mother devotes her entire life for her child for making the future of her child better. Mother is like a shady tree for her child. Mother endures heat herself, but she waves fan with her hand for her child. Mother makes her child sit in the shade whereas she herself endures the scorching sun. Mother pampers her children. Mother fulfils the wishes of her children even by borrowing money. Mother does not let her children wander after her husband’s death. Mother endures the pains before the birth, during the birth and after the birth of her child. Mother makes her child a good human. Mother feels happy even after sacrificing her food for her child and herself sleeps hungry. Mother makes her child lie on a warm bed and lies herself on a cold floor. Mother does not think anything bad for her children. Mother’s happiness lies in the happiness of her children. Mother gets restless when she sees her children in trouble. Mother encourages her children in difficulties. Mother does not leave even her disabled child helpless. Mother becomes affectionate and kind even to her disobedient child. The home seems deserted without Mother. The one who looks after his mother lives a comfortable and peaceful life. To serve mother entails her child to enter Paradise. It is mandatory for a child to keep his mother happy. It is impossible to be free from the rights of mother.

Carried mother on shoulders (and walked) 6 miles on hot stones …

A companion رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ once humbly said to the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم: ‘On a path, stones were so hot that a piece of meat would have roasted if it had been put onto them! I carried my mother on my shoulders for six miles. Am I free from the rights of my mother?’ The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ
