00:00:00 --> 00:00:02 
			In this verse of the Quran of Suratawba
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04 
			chapter 9 verse number 24,
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06 
			Allah I think
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10 
			whether it be for fathers. And you know
00:00:10 --> 00:00:10 
			the Quran
00:00:11 --> 00:00:13 
			respects the parents the highest
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16 
			after Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18 
			Allah says in the Quran in Surah Isra
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20 
			chapter number 17, verse number 27, 24.
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23 
			We have ordained for you
00:00:25 --> 00:00:25 
			that you worship
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27 
			but one Allah,
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30 
			and that you be kind to your parents.
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32 
			So after Allah, comes the parents.
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35 
			Let you be kind to your parents, and
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37 
			if one of them or both of them
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39 
			reach old age, do not say a word
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42 
			of contempt. Don't say off to them. That
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44 
			means 1 or both of your parents reach
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45 
			old age.
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49 
			Whatever they say, you cannot retaliate, you can't
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51 
			even say off to them. So much you
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52 
			have to respect them.
00:00:53 --> 00:00:55 
			Don't say oof to them, but rather
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57 
			address them with honor.
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59 
			Lower to them your view of humility,
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02 
			and pray to thy Lord that bless them
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04 
			as they cherish me in childhood.
