The answer

Wealth and children are a trial (fitna) that may lead to estrangement and turning away, especially among relatives, and most severely between a son and his father. The rights of parents are immense; Allah has enjoined fulfilling their rights immediately after His own, and the Prophet warned against disobeying them, considering it among the greatest of major sins. The door to repentance is open, so a servant should hasten to repent by honoring and being benevolent towards their parents. Indeed, honoring them is among the greatest acts by which one draws near to Allah, while disobeying them incurs Allah’s wrath.
