Filial piety is among the most emphasized duties, and disobeying one's parents is among the most heinous prohibitions. Allah has commanded kindness towards them and forbidden ill-treatment of them. The Prophet (peace be upon him) clarified that disobeying parents is among the greatest major sins, and that Allah will not look at a disobedient child on the Day of Judgment, nor will such a person enter Paradise. Therefore, one must endure and bear the harm inflicted by parents, for the path to Paradise is surrounded by hardships.
