How much do you love your Parents?

Question

Whats that something you would like to say to your mother and to your father?
How special are they to you?
Now as many of you have become parents, how better could you feel the pain of your parents now, which you might had failed to understand when you were young?

Who is more dear to you, mother or father? As to me its my mother~!

* Smiles* Yes the only reason for asking this question was to know your feelings, many of you are now parents by yourselves but sometimes we need a chance to reveal ourselves and know more about ourselves, This might get us more closer, to our parents :) take care you all.....

Answer 1

Well, as a child from divorced parents, I can say that I am a lot more closer to my mother since my dad lived in a different state while I was growing up.

I had "love" for my dad, but didn't love him as a father. Since he is passed away now (may Allah have mercy on his soul), I wish we had a relationship and he could see my children grow.

On the other hand, my mom and I had a good/bad relationship while growing up, but now that I'm married with a family, I can appreciate her so much now and wish to take back the times when I was a "bad daughter". It was all a learning experience and now that I have my own daughter I am hoping for a close relationship and bond.

I LOVE MY MOM!!!

Answer 2

Alhamdulillah, I love both of my parents. Sometimes I wonder about who I love more. I sometimes lean towards my father because he was more religious and always by my side when I wanted to wear hijab, abaya, eat only halal meat etc. My mother would tell me I'm still young. I speak to my mother more. It's easier telling/asking mom something about life than dad. But when it comes to religion, my dad is usually more understanding. May Allah bless every muslim parent with Jannat firdaus, for they all work hard some way or the other, Ameen!

Answer 3

A question I can answer........I love both my parents. I didn't meet my mom until I was 21, and I knew of my dad but he wasn't ever a part of my life that much. I was raised by my grandparents... I love my grandma, and my grandpa before he died. I would tell my mom and dad I forgive them. My grandma is more deart to me, as I don't know my mom and dad as mom and dad, more so as aqauintances. I have 6 sisters and 5 brothers some of whom I haven't seen in almost 20 years..... talk about a dysfunctional family...... you'd wonder if a woman could ever see past my family and see the diamond that is in me to want to go out with me... wow, did I just say all that... whew

Answer 4

My Mother (R.I.P.) was very near and dear to me. My Father is very near and dear to me also. The things I would say is, "Daddy, I'm sorry I cause you and mom the all heartaches in the past. I love you."
"Mom, I love you very much and miss you also. It's been 3 years and I didn't get to say 'Good bye or I love you', but I think you knew then as you do now that I love you. If I could have, I would have taken your place with all the pain and sickness you went through." :(

Answer 5

More than words can describe. I miss them so much and remember them often throughout my day - they are 3,000 miles away. My mother fell ill a couple of years ago and when I spoke to the head nurse and she advised me to come - I felt like my life soul was being torn from me - even now as I write my eyes well up. My tears did not stop until I saw my mother in the hospital. Alhumdolilah Allah has given us more time with her and although she is never going to be 100% - I still crave to hear the few words she can speak and the little giggle when she laughs at herself because she can't get the words out. My father is so precious to me - when I talk to him his calming voice and his wisdom always puts me onto the right track. How much do I love them - I can't say. I too now have two boys Alhumdolilah -who show their love to their parents everyday - and like all parents I make dua to Allah to keep them on the right path, to keep them safe. Having my own children has made me appreciate my parents beyond words and the hardship they went through to raise us four siblings. The funny thing is often I find myself sounding just like my mother - lol - do this do that and their reaction is often the same as mine used to be.
Allah keep all our parents safe, ease them from any discomfort they are in, Allah let no parent be on their own at the time of their needs Ameen.

Answer 6

Deep question maria!
My father who passed away long time ago has a special place in my heart...even now in my late 20s whenever I remember him I change my thoughts quickly because I would just go into deep depression.
Somehow he was closer to me growing up than my mom.
I used to wait till he gets home to have my lunch and I used to eat with him.:)
My mom is the strongest women I know...she did everything for us without ever complaining...and as a mother now I dont know how she did it. Because I complain and get stressed out alot. with her it was always smiles and hugs. she is a superwomen.
InshaAllaah she will Enter Paradise bighayri hisaab...without a struggle.;) God willing.
as for my father every sujood I do I weep to Allaah(swt) to forgive him for all his sins and shower him with his mercy.

Answer 7

I don't love or respect my father as he beat my mother when she lived with him and tried to kill her in court to get custody of me. As for my mother I'll honestly say that I don't love her either because she let my first stepfather smack me around and emotionally abuse and let my 2nd stepfather emotionally abuse me as well. The only people in my immediate family I care about are my grandmother, baby brother and I guess I like my 7 year old sister.

Answer 8

I never felt my dad's love, he passed away when I was 20 months old and my mom doesn't get married again.
So I love my mom more than dad, And She is the best woman I ever meet, raised me and my 5 siblings alone, educate me about my religion by good examples, she's fair, when she makes mistakes she will ask apologize, never feel that her children always wrong, but we can discuss everything.
She is my best friend, where I share about my life.
She teaches me to always positive thinking

I always say to my mom, that I am so blessed to be born in this family, I tell her it almost everyday

Answer 9

i would die for my parents, i love them so much words cant describe how much i care for them. something i would say to my mother and father is Thank you for always being there for me from my worse of times to my best of times, thank you for never leaving me when everyone else gave up on me, thank you for all the things you have done for me from the smallest to the largest. i tell them thank you everyday believe it or not. i love my parents the same but my mom is some what more dear to me.
