Question:
Why are fathers given more respect then mothers? We don’t acknowledge this?
Answer:
Abu Huraira (ra) reported that a person said: Allah’s Messenger, who amongst the people is most deserving of my good treatment? He said: Your mother, again your mother, again your mother, then your father, then your nearest relatives according to the order (of nearness). (Sahih Muslim)
We may follow society or we may follow Rasoolullah (s), our choice.
