Honouring one’s parents takes precedence over voluntary prayer and other actions. Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Jurayj used to worship in his cell, and his mother came to him. She said: ‘O Jurayj! I am your mother, speak to me.’ She found him praying and he said: ‘O Allaah, my mother or my prayer?’ And he chose his prayer. She went away, then she came back a second time and said: ‘O Jurayj! I am your mother, speak to me.’ He said: ‘O Allaah, my mother or my prayer?’ And he chose his prayer. She said: ‘O Allaah, this is Jurayj and he is my son, and I spoke to him but he refused to speak to me. O Allaah, do not let him die until he has seen prostitutes.’” He said: “If she had prayed that he be tempted, he would have fallen prey to temptation.” [Al-Bukhaari (3436) and Muslim (2550)] Al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The scholars said: What would have been correct in this case is answering her, because he was offering a naafil prayer and continuing with it is voluntary and not obligatory, whereas answering one’s mother and honouring her is obligatory, and disobeying her is haraam. He could have shortened his prayer and answered her, then gone back to his prayer… End quote. See: Fath al-Baari by al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him), al-Mawsoo‘ah al-Fiqhiyyah, 20/342 It says in al-Durr al-Mukhtaar (2/54) - which is a Hanafi book: If either of his parents calls him during an obligatory prayer, he should not answer unless his parent is urging him to come and help. End quote. Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said: If your parents call you when you are praying, it is obligatory to answer them, on condition that the prayer is not an obligatory one. If it is an obligatory prayer, it is not permissible to answer them, but if it is a naafil prayer, you should answer them. #like #subscribe #share Clip from: 🎧#2 Tafseer As-Sa'di: Soorah Al-Qasas | Aayat 10-20 https://youtu.be/xVFPiwQiY6o RELATED VIDEO: 💐 Mother: Shaping Tomorrow's Leaders https://youtu.be/cza0NLNMLik ________________ 👍 Follow us on: 🌍 https://www.onewaytoparadise.net 🔗 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AbuMussabWajdiAkkari 🔗 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OneWayToParadise 📱 Telegram: https://t.me/onewaytoparadise
