Obedience To Parents

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (Radi Allahu Anhu) has stated that the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) has said,

"The one whose morning was in such a way that he is obedient to his parents, for him two gates of Paradise are opened in the morning and if only one parent [is alive], then one gate opens. And the one whose evening was in such a way that he was disobedient to Allah in regards to his parents, for him two gates of Hell open in the morning and if only one of them [is alive], and then only one gate opens."

A person asked, "Even if the parents are cruel to him?"

He (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) replied, "Even if they are cruel, even if they are cruel, even if they are cruel."
