This affair of theirs and mine continued till it was dawn. If my deedas you know was for to seek your pleasure, then rescue us andmake for us an opening from which we see the horizon.Accordingly, Allah (swt) made an opening for them till they saw thehorizon. The other two also remembered their good deeds by whichthey made dua to Allah (swt) in this difficult time and Allah (swt)helped them and the huge rock was removed from the opening ofthe cave." (See Sahih Al-Bukhari & Sahih Al-Muslim)It is now very easy for us to understand that doing good for ourparents and being obedient sons and daughters to them, wecan become good servants to Allah (swt). The huge rocks ofdifficulties will be removed from our ways if we can prove to behelpful to our parents and also to our fellow human being,irrespesctive of race, religion and nationalities.Order from the Qur’anHardship Mothers face for a child & Duty towardsParents And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him, andthat you be dutiful to your parents.
