وجّه وزير الشؤون الإسلامية الشيخ الدكتور عبداللطيف بن عبدالعزيز آل الشيخ، خطباء الجوامع في مختلف مناطق المملكة بتخصيص خطبة الجمعة القادمة 21 / 2 / 1447هـ للحديث عن حق الوالدين ووجوب برهما والإحسان إليهما، وفق المحاور التالية:
1- التذكير بعظم حق الوالدين ووجوب برهما والإحسان إليهما، وأن الله قرن حقهما بحقه فقال سبحانه: «وَقَضَى رَبُّكَ أَلا تَعْبُدُوا إِلا إِيَّاهُ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا»، وحذّر من عقوقهما والإساءة إليهما فقال عز وجل: «إِمَّا يَبْلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ الْكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا أَوْ كِلاهُمَا فَلا تَقُل لَّهُمَا أُفٍّ وَلا تَنْهَرْهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوْلًا كَرِيمًا»، وأمر بالذل لهما تعظيماً لحقهما، والدعاء لهما، فقال سبحانه: «وَاخْفِضْ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ الذُّلِّ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ وَقُل رَّبِّ ارْحَمْهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرًا».
2- بيان أن بر الوالدين سبب لرضا الله تعالى عن العبد، فعن عبدالله بن عمرو ـ رضي الله عنهما ـ أن رسول الله ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قال: «رِضا الرَّبِّ في رِضا الوالِدِ، وسَخَطُ الرَّبِّ في سَخَطِ الوالِدِ».
3- التحذير من عقوق الوالدين، فعن أبي بكرة الثقفي ـ رضي الله عنه ـ قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «أَلا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بأَكْبَرِ الكَبائِرِ؟ قالوا: بَلَى يا رَسولَ اللَّهِ، قالَ: الإشْراكُ باللَّهِ، وعُقُوقُ الوالِدَيْنِ».
4- تعزيز مظاهر البر في مجتمعنا، المتمثلة في تنافس الأبناء والبنات على خدمة آبائهم وأمهاتهم خصوصاً عند الكِبَر والضعف، من خلال رعايتهم، وتفقد حاجاتهم ورغباتهم، والسعي لإسعادهم وإدخال السرور عليهم، والعناية بصحتهم، ومرافقتهم عند زيارة الطبيب، ومتابعة تناولهم للأدوية، وغير ذلك من صور البر والإحسان إليهم.
The Minister of Islamic Affairs, Sheikh Dr. Abdul Latif bin Abdul Aziz Al Sheikh, has directed the preachers of mosques in various regions of the Kingdom to dedicate the upcoming Friday sermon on 21/2/1447 AH to discuss the rights of parents and the obligation to be dutiful and kind to them, according to the following points:
1- Reminding of the greatness of the rights of parents and the necessity of being dutiful and kind to them, as Allah has linked their rights to His rights, saying: "And your Lord has decreed that you not worship except Him, and to parents, good treatment." He warned against disobedience to them and mistreating them, saying: "And if one of them or both of them should attain old age while with you, say not to them [so much as], 'uff,' and do not repel them but speak to them a noble word." He commanded humility towards them in honoring their rights and praying for them, saying: "And lower to them the wing of humility out of mercy and say, 'My Lord, have mercy upon them as they brought me up [when I was] small.'
2- Clarifying that being dutiful to parents is a cause for Allah's pleasure with the servant. Abdullah bin Amr - may Allah be pleased with them - reported that the Messenger of Allah - peace be upon him - said: "The pleasure of the Lord is in the pleasure of the parent, and the displeasure of the Lord is in the displeasure of the parent."
3- Warning against disobedience to parents. Abu Bakrah Al-Thaqafi - may Allah be pleased with him - said: The Messenger of Allah - peace be upon him - said: "Shall I not inform you of the greatest of the major sins?" They said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "Associating partners with Allah and disobedience to parents."
4- Enhancing the manifestations of dutifulness in our society, which are represented in the competition of sons and daughters to serve their fathers and mothers, especially in old age and weakness, through caring for them, checking on their needs and desires, striving to make them happy and bring joy to them, taking care of their health, accompanying them when visiting the doctor, monitoring their medication intake, and other forms of dutifulness and kindness towards them.
