The Supplication of the Parents



Al-Hamdullillah Wa-Salaatu Was-Salaamu A`laa Rasollillah, Amaa B`ad:

Shaykh `Abdur-Razaaq (hafidha-hullah) continued his duroos of Adabul-Mufrad of Imaam Al-Bukhaaree with the chapter:

The Supplication of the Parents:

From Abu Huraira, who said that the Messenger of Allah (Sallahu Alaihee Wasallam) said:

" Three types of supplications are answered (without doubt); the supplication of the oppressed, the supplication of the traveller and the supplication of the parent for his child."

Declared as Hasan (good) by Shaykh Al-Albaani (refer to As-Saheehah: 596).

Shaykh Abdur-Razaaq went onto say:

This Hadith explains that there are three types of supplications that are not rejected:

1. The supplication of the oppressed. And that is due to the oppression that he has suffered and he makes Du`a against the one who oppresses him. As occurs in the hadith of Mu`aadh, in which the Prophet (Sallahu Alaihee Wasallam) said:

"Beware of the supplication of the oppressed, as indeed there is no hijab (to prevent the Du`a from being answered) between the one who is oppressed and Allah.

2. The supplication of the traveller. Due to the difficulties a traveller faces, his supplication during his journey will be answered.

3. The supplication of the parents for their child. This applies whether the parent makes Du`a for the child or against him, both types of supplications will be answered. It is therefore upon the children to do all that they can to have their parents make Du`a for them. This is done through pleasing one`s parents, being obedient to them and showing them goodness.

Along with this, they (the children) must also take all precautionary measures to make sure that Du`a is not made against them, due to their disobedience and lack of goodness towards their parents.

And Allah the Most High knows best.
