A true story of a rebellious daughter.
A few months ago, in a village lived an old man being left by his first and second wife to another world. Without doors and walls, he stayed at a guardhouse . He was abandoned by his daughter because she felt he had used much wealth of her mother (first wife). He was taken care by some generous villagers who gave gave him food everyday, regularly. Having known that, his daughter felt ashamed of him and wanted to send him to another village to be vagrant. The villagers opposed her decision badly and said, "Let us take care of your father. If you feel ashamed of him, go back to your place". She moved from her village to another town.
Two months later, her father died and she didn't go home for a visit despite hearing the news. After that, she went for Hajj to Mecca. Having come back home, she died on that day without any illness.
Dear friends, is this how we were thought to treat our parents? I believe that no matter how we think our parents are wrong, we SHOULD still RESPECT them. Even just to say 'hush' to parents is not allowed in my religion.
How should we treat our parents if we ever think that they are wrong?
Have you ever regretted for what you've done to your parents?
I would say that an apology is better before we run out of time.
Thank you so much for being concerned about this discussion.

Hi satt,
This is what I'm talking about. When we see them very wrong or even see they never took care of us children,, should we treat them like a felon? Even a felon would have a chance to start over his/her life. A friend said, "From where we were born? Why need to be rough to them? Anyway, we are their descent". In my point of view, the most polite argument should be between children and parents, in whatever circumstances.
Thank you so much for commenting and sharing your view, Satt. I appreciate it.

Hi Onee,
As we expect our children to respect us, we also should respect parents.
As for that girl, shame on her. I wonder what she asked of God in Mecca?!!!
Hi..yes good story...but what you do with parents what do not care for their children..they give birth after that they abandon this babies..they reach orphanage..and on this days happend very often...So can you have respect or carry for this type parents????
Kepatuhan mutlag! Sangat bagus teman ku! Allah joined his worship with the charity or kindness to the parents. What about the nine months or so, my mother suffered and met a great deal of hatred! Nice topic, my lady
This made me remember a dear bro said "as you sow so shall you reap"
Thank you once again for sharing the great quote, dear Muhammad.
