From The Saying of The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) (17)
"جاء رجل إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال : يا رسول الله ، من أحق الناس بحسن صحابتي ؟ قال :
( أمك ) . قال : ثم من ؟ قال : ( ثم أمك ) . قال : ثم من ؟ قال : ( ثم أمك ) . قال : ثم من ؟ قال : ( ثم أبوك )" . الراوي: أبو هريرة المحدث: البخاري - المصدر: صحيح البخاري - الصفحة أو الرقم: 5971 خلاصة حكم المحدث: [صحيح]
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: "A person came to Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and asked, "Who among people is most deserving of my fine treatment?'' He (PBUH) said, "Your mother". He again asked, ``Who next?'' "Your mother", the Prophet (PBUH) replied again. He asked, "Who next?'' He (the Prophet (PBUH)) said again, "Your mother.'' He again asked, "Then who?'' Thereupon he (PBUH) said,'' Then your father"
In another narration: "O Messenger of Allah! Who is most deserving of my fine treatment?'' He (PBUH) said, "Your mother, then your mother, then your mother, then your father, then your nearest, then nearest ( Al-Bukhari and Muslim )"
Commentary:
Islam gives great interest and great respect to parents because they form the first cell of the society (the family).They plant in their children the first seeds of faith . They bring them up on supreme values to be good citizens .If the family becomes good ,the society will be good,too. Allah (pbth ) honoured parents and commanded us to look after them,to give them great respect and to treat in the best way specially in their old age.So He (pbth ) tied between the commandment of worshipping him and the commandment of being obedience to them in a lot of verses in the Quran and warned the sons of being disobedience to them or giving them bad treatment but more of that He (pbth ) promised to punish them in this life and in the hereafter.Allah said in the Quran
:
۞ وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا ۚإِمَّا يَبْلُغَنَّ عِنْدَكَ الْكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا أَوْ كِلَاهُمَا فَلَا تَقُلْ لَهُمَا أُفٍّ وَلَا تَنْهَرْهُمَا وَقُلْ لَهُمَا قَوْلًا كَرِيمًا. وَاخْفِضْ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ الذُّلِّ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ وَقُلْ رَبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرً"ا (17/23-24)
"Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him, and that ye be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honour". "And, out of kindness, lower to them the wing of humility, and say: "My Lord! bestow on them thy Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood" (17/23-24)

"Serve Allah, and join not any partners with Him; and do good- to parents" (4/36)

"وَوَصَّيْنَا الْإِنْسَانَ بِوَالِدَيْهِ حَمَلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَهْنًا عَلَىٰ وَهْنٍ وَفِصَالُهُ فِي عَامَيْنِ أَنِ اشْكُرْ لِي وَلِوَالِدَيْكَ إِلَيَّ الْمَصِيرُ(31/14)
"And We have enjoined on man (to be good) to his parents: in travail upon travail did his mother bear him, and in years twain was his weaning: (hear the command), "Show gratitude to Me and to thy parents: to Me is (thy final) Goal" (31/14)
Commentary :
In this Hadith the messenger of Allah honoured the mother and appreciated her efforts in the family. He (pbuh) told us that the rights of the mother are three times more important than the father because she is weaker than the father and she endures a lot of troubles in carrying the baby in her womb for nine months and she suffers a lot in the Two years' period of suckling which disturbs her sleep at night and affects her health. She has also to be very cautious in her food for the welfare of the baby and the welfare of all the family .The messenger recommended a good treatment to the wife in the farewell Hajj of the messenger of Allah (pbuh).
