Parents deserve kindness and respect as a natural obligation for their nurturing, especially a mother’s sacrifices. However, obedience to parents does not extend to accepting commands that contradict faith or morality. While good conduct, service, and respect are essential, adherence should be to the path of righteousness, not blind obedience. The core principle is honoring parents while remaining steadfast in one’s faith and ethical principles. True respect lies in guiding them towards the right path, not following them into wrongdoing.

It emphasizes that this knowledge is a direct bestowal from God, implanted in the heart without formal learning or scholarly effort.
