Default Kiss Your Parents Feet and Repent to Allah: AE

From Shaykh Abu Eesa Niamatullah's blog: Kiss Your Parents’ Feet and Repent to Allah AE

YouTube - Reality TV

By the way, when youve stopped crying, recognise your guilt and now do something about it. May Allah give us all the tawfiq to do that which He commands us to.

Here is the original poem that the paralysed brother in the video, may Allah unite him with his parents in Firdaws al-Ala, quotes from:



أغرى امرؤ يوماً غلاماً جاهلاً * * * بنقوده كيما ينال به الوطر

One day a man tempted an ignorant boy
Using his money, in order to achieve his objective




قال ائتني بفؤاد أمك يا فتى * * * ولك الدراهم والجواهر والدرر

He said, O young one, bring me the heart of your mother
And money, jewels and pearls will be yours!




فمضى و أغرز خنجراً في صدرها * * * و القلب أخرجه و عاد على الأثر

So he went and plunged a dagger into her chest
And took out the heart and returned the way he came




لكنه من فرط سرعته هوى * * * فتدحرج القلب المعفر إذ عثر

But because of his haste, he fell
And the dusty heart rolled away as he stumbled




ناداه قلب الأم و هو معفر * * * ولدي حبيبي هل أصابك من ضرر

The heart of his mother called him, and he was covered in dust,
My son! My beloved! Are you hurt?!




فكأن هذا الصوت رغم حنوه * * * غضب السماء به على الولد انهمر

The voice, although it was so gentle, yet
It was like the wrath of the Heavens had fallen on the boy




ودرى فظيع خيانة لم يأتها * * * أحد سواه منذ تاريخ البشر

Thus he understood the enormity of his betrayal that nobody
Had committed but him in the history of mankind




فارتد نحو القلب يغسله بما * * * أجرت دموع العين من سيل العبر

So he rushed back to the heart washing it with the tears
Of his eyes that flowed from the flood of sorrow




و يقول يا قلب انتقم مني و لا * * * تغفر فإن جريمتي لا تغتفر

And he said, O heart! Take your revenge from me and do not
Forgive, because my crime is unforgiveable.




و إذا غفرت فإنني أقضي انتـ * * *ـحارا مثل من قبلي انتحر

And if you forgive then surely I will kill myself
Like those before me who have committed suicide.




فاستل خنجره ليقتل نفسه * * * طعناً فيبقى عبرة لمن اعتبر

So as he unsheathed his dagger to kill himself,
A stabbing that would remain as an example to those who seek lessons,




ناداه قلب الأم كف يداً و لا * * * تذبح فؤادي مرتين على الأث

The heart of the mother called him saying, Stop your hand and do not
strike my heart twice in succession!



This was said to be the work of the poet Ibrahim al-Mundhir but it is more likely the poem of the Christian poet Bishara al-Khouri who was actually the first President of Lebanon.

I expect to be rewarded for all my efforts in propagating this knowledge inshaAllah but I hope that the anonymous poster who brought this video to my attention in the previous post comments section receives double that reward.

Parents are so special. JazakAllah for sharing. May Allah [swt] grant all of our parents good health, strengthened imaan, the best of this life and the next, and may we never cause them to utter a sigh of distress due to our heedlessness, iA. Ameen.

Oh my God... that was so beautiful.
I didn't think it could get any better after the heart spoke for the first time, but the ending... SubhanAllah. That brought tears to my eyes.

Caramel_Candy: Ameen.

“Say not to them a word of disrespect, nor shout at them…” – Video AE


Quote:
Whereas the last video concerning our mothers was produced on a Muslim TV show, this wonderful little production has been produced by a young Greek non-Muslim director. And thus what really struck me was that it seems this video was produced virtually 100% to illustrate the statement of Allah jalla wa ‘ala:

Quote:
وَقَضَى رَبُّكَ أَلاَّ تَعْبُدُواْ إِلاَّ إِيَّـهُ وَبِالْوَلِدَيْنِ إِحْسَـناً إِمَّا يَبْلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ الْكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا أَوْ كِلاَهُمَا فَلاَ تَقُل لَّهُمَآ أُفٍّ وَلاَ تَنْهَرْهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوْلاً كَرِيمًا وَاخْفِضْ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ الذُّلِّ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ وَقُل رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِى صَغِيرًا

And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him, and that you be excellent to your parents. If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of disrespect, nor shout at them, but address them in terms of honour. And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy, and say: “My Lord! Bestow on them Your mercy as they did bring me up when I was young. (Isra 17:23-24)
Wallahi, ‘ajeeb!

Jazakumallahu khairan for sharing... I couldn't help but cry and reflect on myself. SubhanAllah, our Parents do so much for us and when we do little for them we think we've done a lot.

May Allah swt make us of those who respect, care and love our Parents as they deserve. Ameen!
