The answer

The first hadith is fabricated due to the presence of a liar in its chain of transmission. The hadith "Looking at the Kaaba is an act of worship" is weak due to the presence of a narrator whose narrations are not corroborated. Musnad al-Firdaws is a source known for weak hadiths. As for the hadith "He has not honored his father who casts a wrathful glance at him," Al-Albani declared it very weak due to the presence of a forsaken narrator in its chain. The hadith "The pleasure of the Lord is in the pleasure of the parents, and the displeasure of the Lord is in the displeasure of the parents" is authentic. The hadith "It will be said to the disobedient child: 'Do as you wish'" is weak due to the presence of unknown narrators in its chain. Spreading religious matters is encouraged by Islamic law, but it is necessary to verify the authenticity of what is spread, especially if they are Prophetic hadiths.
