Is a mother's approval of the supplication "May Allah be pleased with you" considered forgiveness for having raised one's voice at her during her lifetime, and what can be done to honor her after her death?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Raising one's voice at the mother is a forbidden act of disobedience (ʿUqūq), and one must repent to Allah for it. This can be remedied by showing righteousness towards her after her death through supplicating for her, giving charity on her behalf, and maintaining ties with her kin.
