RIGHTS OF PARENTS - PART 7

Sayyidna Abdullah Ibn Umar RAA narrated that Rasool Allah ﷺ said, "The greatest respect one can pay to one's father after his death is to treat his friends well."

Sayyidna Abu Usayd al-Badri RAA has narrated that an Ansari came and asked Rasool Allah SAW, "Ya Rasool Allah! Do I still owe my parents some rights even after that have passed away?" Rasool Allah SAW said, "Yeas!Praying and seeking forgiveness for them, fulfilling the promises they had made to people in their life, being kind and respectful to their friends, and showing mercy and generosity to such relatives who were related only to them (Silatu 'r-rahmi). These are the rights of your parents you still owe to them even after their death."
