Question:What are the recommendations of the Holy Quran with respect to parents? Answer: Respecting parents and showing the proper behavior towards them are issues that are considered very important to Allah (SWT). As a result, a considerable number of verses in the Holy Quran and narrations from Prophet Muhammad (PBUH&HP) and his progeny are dedicated about parents. In browsing these verses and narrations, one may find that many of the explanations and expressions about respect to parents are very astonishing, and are not said about other topics.
The Appointment of the Great Prophet of Islam (PBUH&HP)
The beginning of the appointment (Mab'ath) of the Prophet of Islam to Prophethood is in a way the start of the revelation of the holy Book of the religion of Islam, the Holy Quran. The Holy Quran is a direction and a map to a path that humans through sticking to it and to its main teacher, the Prophet of Islam (PBUH&HP), will attain their destination. But in order to become familiar with this everlasting miracle of the Holy Prophet (PBUH&HP), the best way would be to refer to this Holy Book. Allah (SWT) who revealed the Holy Quran, knows the Holy Quran better than any other creature and He is the most deserving one to describe the Holy Quran; therefore, the best description is the description that Allah says about this holy book...
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH&HP):
Hussein is from me and I am from Hussein; Allah loves him who loves Hussein.
