Read Surah Al-Isra
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ
اُنْظُرْ كَیْفَ فَضَّلْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ عَلٰی بَعْضٍ ؕ وَ لَلْاٰخِرَةُ اَكْبَرُ دَرَجٰتٍ وَّ اَكْبَرُ تَفْضِیْلًا۲۱
"See, how We favour one over the other; and in life to come are higher ranks and favours greater still.لَا تَجْعَلْ مَعَ اللّٰهِ اِلٰهًا اٰخَرَ فَتَقْعُدَ مَذْمُوْمًا مَّخْذُوْلًا۠۲۲
"Do not set up another god with God, or you will remain disgraced and destitute.وَ قَضٰی رَبُّكَ اَلَّا تَعْبُدُوْۤا اِلَّاۤ اِیَّاهُ وَ بِالْوَالِدَیْنِ اِحْسَانًا ؕ اِمَّا یَبْلُغَنَّ عِنْدَكَ الْكِبَرَ اَحَدُهُمَاۤ اَوْ كِلٰهُمَا فَلَا تَقُلْ لَّهُمَاۤ اُفٍّ وَّ لَا تَنْهَرْهُمَا وَ قُلْ لَّهُمَا قَوْلًا كَرِیْمًا۲۳
"So your Lord has decreed: Do not worship anyone but Him, and be good to your parents. If one or both of them grow old in your presence, do not say fie to them, nor reprove them, but say gentle words to themوَ اخْفِضْ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ الذُّلِّ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ وَ قُلْ رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّیٰنِیْ صَغِیْرًاؕ۲۴
"And look after them with kindness and love, and say: "O Lord, have mercy on them as they nourished me when I was small."رَبُّكُمْ اَعْلَمُ بِمَا فِیْ نُفُوْسِكُمْ ؕ اِنْ تَكُوْنُوْا صٰلِحِیْنَ فَاِنَّهٗ كَانَ لِلْاَوَّابِیْنَ غَفُوْرًا۲۵
Your Lord knows what is in your heart. If you are righteous, then He is indeed forgiving to those who turn (to Him) in repentance.وَ اٰتِ ذَا الْقُرْبٰی حَقَّهٗ وَ الْمِسْكِیْنَ وَ ابْنَ السَّبِیْلِ وَ لَا تُبَذِّرْ تَبْذِیْرًا۲۶
So give to your relatives what is their due, and to those who are needy, and the wayfarers; and do not dissipate (your wealth) extravagantly.اِنَّ الْمُبَذِّرِیْنَ كَانُوْۤا اِخْوَانَ الشَّیٰطِیْنِ ؕ وَ كَانَ الشَّیْطٰنُ لِرَبِّهٖ كَفُوْرًا۲۷
Those who dissipate (their wealth) are the brethren of the devils, and the Devil was ungrateful to his Lord.وَ اِمَّا تُعْرِضَنَّ عَنْهُمُ ابْتِغَآءَ رَحْمَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّكَ تَرْجُوْهَا فَقُلْ لَّهُمْ قَوْلًا مَّیْسُوْرًا۲۸
If you neglect (your parents) while seeking the bounty of your Lord, of which you are hopeful, speak to them softly.وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ یَدَكَ مَغْلُوْلَةً اِلٰی عُنُقِكَ وَ لَا تَبْسُطْهَا كُلَّ الْبَسْطِ فَتَقْعُدَ مَلُوْمًا مَّحْسُوْرًا۲۹
Do not be niggardly, nor extravagant that you may later feel reprehensive and constrained.اِنَّ رَبَّكَ یَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَ یَقْدِرُ ؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ بِعِبَادِهٖ خَبِیْرًۢا بَصِیْرًا۠۳۰
Certainly your Lord provides with open hands whosoever He will, but according to capacity, for He knows and watches His creatures.
