The following are some ahadith relating to status of parents:

“If anyone visits the grave of his parents, or of one of them, every Friday he will be granted forgiveness and it will be recorded as piety due from a son or daughter.” ( Baihaqi )

Hazrat Anas (Radiyallahu Anhu) reported Allah’s Messenger (S.A.W) as saying, “The parents of a man die, or one of them dies, and he has been undutiful to them, then he keeps on making supplication and asking forgiveness for them till Allah records that he is dutiful”

( Baihaqi ) Hazrat Ibne Abbas(Radiyallahu Anhu) reported Allah’s Messenger (S.A.W) as saying, “No dutiful son gives his parents a kind look without Allah recording to his credit an approved pilgrimage for every look.” He was asked if that was so even if he gave a hundred looks daily and replied, “Yes, Allah is most great and most good.” ( Baihaqi )

Hazrat Abu Huraira (Radiyallahu Anhu) reported Allah’s Messenger (S.A.W) as saying, “May he be humbled; may he be humbled; may he be humbled!” He was asked about whom he was speaking and replied, “The one who, having one or both parents live to old age and does not enter Paradise.” ( Muslim Sharif )
