Mothers are accorded a special place of honor and respect in Islam.
A man once came to Prophet Muhammad and asked, "O Messenger of God! Who among the people is more worthy of my companionship?" The Prophet replied, "Your mother." Then man then asked who next, the Prophet replied "Your mother" again. The man repeated the question a third time and got the same answer. The man asked once again, "Who next?" Only then did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reply, "Your father."
These, and other references in the Qur'an and incidents from the life of the Prophet, clearly indicate the elevated status Islam has given to mothers. A Muslim sees a mother as an icon of strength and courage, tempered with compassion, kindness and love.
The heaven is under the Mother feet indicate that an ideal Muslim should be a servant for him mother and try his/her best to make her happy and feel comfort even if it is required clean the earth under her feet.
Remember this is for Muslims only who believe in Allah the only One God...

You have some issues with Islam.
Of course the saying isn't to be taken "literally." If I say that person is an airhead, does that mean that her head is full of air?
As Salahudin said, it means that a person must respect the mother and will for sure go to heaven.
Learn how to take things into context and not literally all the time.

As Salahuddin has rightly said. Respect mother if you want to go to heaven. Islam is showing the how important mother is to you.

You completely missed the meaning....
It means that the way to get into Heaven is to respect your mother.
