Duties to Your Parents

Man is the best creation of God. He comes to this world through the excruciating pains of his parents. He has certain duties. He has 'duty towards God, duty towards parents and duty towards mankind." Thus duty towards parents is the foremost duty of man.

Children have close affinity with their parents. Their parents bring them to the world. Because of their hardships and pains, the children can enjoy the beauty, freshness and essence of life. Parents are the main sources of our life. Thus we should be loyal to them. We must perform duties for their well-being on earth.

Parents' contribution to us is immense. Mother keeps the child in her womb for 280 days. She breeds the child. When a human child is born, it is very helpless. The parents rear them. They take every care of them. They do not seek their own happiness. Gradually, parents grow the child up. They feed the children even themselves being unfed. They work for our own prosperity. They sacrifice themselves for the welfare of the children. Thus the parents' contributions to the children are innumerable and indescribable.

Parents are our guide, friend and philosopher. They teach us the first knowledge. They lead us in the best way. They lay their moral teachings on us. They even sacrifice their lives for the children. Thus duty to parents is our holiest responsibility.

To obey our parents is our religious duty. They are our well-wishers. We must be grateful to them. We should work for their well-being and happiness. We should not act against their I wishes. We have to go on the basis of their advice. We should not displease them. In old days, parents become weak and enfeeble. At that time, they need more and more attention. We must serve them in their woe and owe. Parents will be happy if they find that they are cared by their children.

Obedience to parents leads to the satisfaction of God. In every religion, there is the indication of man to obey parents. This obedience will bring success for us. If we can perform our proper duties to parents, we will be justified as the best creation. All great men of the world were obedient to their parents. Hazrat Mohammad (Sm.) says, "Heaven lies at the feet of mother." The Hindu religion asserts, "Father is heaven, father is religion, father is the best desired." Thus the obedience to parents is a must for everyone.

Disobedience to parents is the most heinous work. It is a great sin. A disobedient child is no better than a filthy beast. God is displeased with him. He is never helped by God. He will be thrown into the deep pit of sufferings. In fact, disobedience to parents will disparage us to a lower level.

Every human being should be grateful to parents. We should work for our breeders. We should not deviate from this moral duty. We owe to them a lot. We cannot repay what we owe to them. If we can work for the satisfaction of our parents, they will find that their sacrifices and sufferings have been amply paid.
