Praying position

The basis of the woman’s prayer in the Hanafi madhhab is that it follows the same rulings as the man’s prayer, and any differences between the two return to the principle of what is most concealing and modest for her.

The basis of the woman’s prayer in the Hanafi madhhab is that it follows the same rulings as the man’s prayer, and any differences between the two return to the principle of what is most concealing and modest for her. [Ibn `Abidin, Radd al Muhtar]
In prostration, it is sunna for a woman to draw all of her limbs closely together in order to achieve maximum modesty. Her abdomen rests on top of her thighs and her upper-arms remain closely at her sides while her forearms lay on the floor. [Radd al- Muhtar; Shurunbulali, Maraqi al-Falah] It is sunna for men to prostrate in-between their hands, and their hands are placed at the level of the ears like the opening takbir. So far, I have not found a specific text that indicates that a woman does differently but I am still researching this matter. Yet, it should be noted that the placement of the hands do not affect the validity of the prayer and it is permissible to place one’s hands at the head level while prostrating as long as the ideals of modesty and concealment are upheld. In regards to her toes, it is obligatory for a part of the toes to touch the ground while in prostration in order for the prayer to be considered valid. Shaykh Faraz Rabbani has mentioned that it is not a specific sunna for women to keep their toes upright but there is no harm in doing so during prostration.
While sitting for tashahud, she sits in the tawarruk position, which means that she sits on her left buttock with her knees bent and both legs are conveniently positioned to the right side of her body. In Maraqi Falah, al-Hadiyya al-Alaiyya, and Imdad al Fatah, the authors mention that the thigh is placed on top of the other thigh while her leg rests underneath her right hip. In Majma al-Anhar, the author explains further and says that “…she sits on her left buttock and positions both legs to the right side of her body because this is most concealing for her, and she brings together both of her thighs and places her right leg on top of her left leg.”
In terms of additional information, the great Hanafi jurist Ibn Abdin notes the differences found within the woman’s prayer in Radd al-Muhtar. I have translated the majority of the details from his list while also adding extra explanations from sources like al-Hadiyya al-Alaiyya, Maraqi al-Falah and Imdad al-Fatah.
1.) When performing the opening takbir, she raises her hands to the level of her shoulders, while men raise their hands to the level of their ears.
2.) When performing the opening takbir, she does not withdraw her hands from underneath her sleeves because it may expose her forearms which are awrah (nakedness), while men should remove their hands from underneath their shawls.
3.) When standing, she places her right inner-palm on top of her left hand and rests them on her chest without clasping them, while men place their hands below their navels and clasp them together.
4.) When bowing, she bends her back slightly so that she touches her knees but she does not straighten her back fully, unlike men who completely align their limbs.
5.) When bowing, she does not spread her fingers apart but rather she keeps them closed together, unlike men who keep their fingers outspread.
6.) When bowing, she places her palms upon her knees and does not grasp her knees, unlike men who grasp their knees.
7.) When bowing, she bends her knees, unlike men who keep their knees straightened.
8.) When bowing and prostrating, she keeps her upper arms (the area from the shoulder to the elbow) as close as possible to the sides of her body, unlike men who distance their upper arms from their bodies.
9.) When prostrating, she rests her forearms on the ground, unlike men who keep their arms raised above the ground.
10.) She does not keep her toes upright like men.
11.) While sitting for tashahud, she sits in the tawarrak position (explained above) and she places her hands on top of her thighs such that the tips of her fingers reach her knees.
12.) While sitting for tashahud, she does not spread her fingers apart but rather she keeps them closed together, unlike men who keep their fingers outspread.
13.) If the Imam forgets something in his prayer, she claps without excessive movement instead of saying ‘SubHanAllah’ like men.
14.) She does not lead the man’s prayer.
15.) It is prohibitively disliked (e.g. sinful) for her to pray in a woman’s group prayer, to give the adhan, or to give the iqama.
16.) If she prays in a mixed congregation, she stands behind the men.
17.) She is not obligated to attend the Friday sermon prayer, but if she does and completes it, it counts as her Dhuhr prayer.
18.) It is not necessary (wajib) for her to attend the Eid prayer as opposed to men.
19.) It is not recommended for her to wait until the brightness of the sun to pray Fajr like it is for men performing the group prayer, but it is best for her to pray at the earliest part of the Fajr prayer time.
20.) She does not recite out loud in the non-silent prayers. Yet, it is important to note that if she is praying by herself in any prayer, she must recite at a level where she can hear herself in order for her prayers to be considered valid.

Praise be to Allah.
This is a brief and useful summary of what we were able to compile of sahih hadiths that speak of the morning and evening adhkar:
1- Al-Bukhari (6306) narrated from Shaddad ibn Aws (may Allah be pleased with him) that that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “The best prayer for seeking forgiveness is to say: ‘Allahumma anta rabbi la ilaha illa anta, Khalaqtani wa ana ‘abduka wa ana ‘ala ‘ahdika wa wa’dika ma astata‘t. A‘udhu bika min sharri ma sana‘tu, abu-u laka bi ni‘matika ‘alayya wa abu-u laka bi dhanbi, faghfir li fa innahu la yaghfiru’l-dhunub illa anta (O Allah, You are my Lord. None has the right to be worshipped but You. You created me and I am Your slave, and I am faithful to my covenant and my promise (to You) as much as I can. I seek refuge with You from all the evil I have done. I acknowledge before You all the blessings You have bestowed upon me, and I confess to You all my sins. So I entreat You to forgive my sins, for nobody can forgive sins except You).” And he said: “Whoever says this during the day, having faith in it and dies before the evening comes, will be among the people of Paradise, and whoever says it during the night, having faith in it, and dies before the morning comes, will be among the people of Paradise.”
2- Muslim (2692) narrated that Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever says in the morning and in the evening: ‘Subhan Allah wa bi hamdihi (Glory and praise be to Allah)’ one hundred times, no one will come on the Day of Resurrection with anything better than what he has done, except one who said something like what he said, or more than that.
3- Muslim (2709) narrated from Abu Hurayrah that he said: A man came to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, I was stung by a scorpion last night. He said: “If you had said, when evening came, A‘udhu bi kalimat-Illah it-tammati min sharri ma khalaq (I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of that which He has created), , it would not have harmed you.”
It was narrated by Imam Ahmad in his Musnad (6812), and by at-Tirmidhi (3529) – who classed it as hasan – from Abu Raashid al-Hubrani, who said: I came to ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘As and said to him: Tell me what you heard from the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). He placed a page in front of me and said: This is what the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) dictated to me (to write). I looked at it, and it said that Abu Bakr as-Siddiq said: O Messenger of Allah, teach me something that I can say in the morning and in the evening. The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to him: “O Abu Bakr, say: Allahumma fatir al-samawati wa’l-ard, ‘alim al-ghaybi wa’l-shahadah, la ilaha illa anta, Rabba kulli shay’in wa malikahu, a‘udhu bika min sharri nafsi wa min sharri’sh-shaytan wa shirkihi, wa an aqtarifa ‘ala nafsi su-an aw ajurrahu ila Muslim (O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, knower of the unseen and the seen, there is none worthy of worship but You, Lord and sovereign of all things, I seek refuge in You from the evil of my own self and from the evil of the Shaytan and his encouragement of shirk, and from causing any harm to myself or any Muslim).”
4- Abu Dawud (5074) narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) never failed to say these du‘as in the evening and in the morning:
“Allahumma inni as aluka al-‘afiyah fi’l-dunya wa’l-akhirah. Allahumma inni as aluka al-‘afw wa’l-‘afiyah fi dini wa dunyaya wa ahli wa mali. Allahumma astur ‘awrati wa amin raw‘ati. Allahumma ihfazni min bayna yadayya wa min khalfi wa ‘an yamini wa ‘an shimali wa min fawqi wa a’udhu bi ‘azamatika an ughtala min tahti (O Allah, I ask You for well-being in this world and in the Hereafter. O Allah, I ask You for forgiveness and well-being in my religious and worldly affairs, and my family and my wealth. O Allah, conceal my faults and keep me safe from the things that I fear. O Allah, protect me from the front and from behind, and on my right and on my left and from above, and I seek refuge in Your greatness from receiving unexpected harm from below me [being swallowed up by the earth]). Classed as sahih by al-Albani in Sahieh al-Adab al-Mufrad, and elsewhere.
5- It was narrated by Abu Dawud (5068), at-Tirmidhi (3391) and an-Nasai in al-Kubra (10323) from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he used to say when morning came: “Allahumma bika asbahna wa bika amsayna, wa bika nahya wa bika namut wa ilayka’an-nushur (O Allah, by Your grace we reach the morning, by Your grace we reach the evening, by Your grace we live and by Your grace we die, and to You is the resurrection).” When evening came he would say: “Allahumma bika amsayna wa bika asbahna, wa bika nahya wa bika namut wa ilayka’al-masir (O Allah, by Your grace we reach the evening, by Your grace we reach the morning, by Your grace we live, by Your grace we die and to You is our ultimate return).” Classed as sahih by al-Albani in Sahih at-Tirmidhi.
6- Al-Bukhari (6040) narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever says ‘La ilaha ill-Allah wahdahu la sharika lah, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir (There is no god except Allah Alone, with no partner or associate; to Him belongs sovereignty, to Him be praise, and He has power over all things)’ one hundred times a day, he will have a reward equivalent to that of freeing ten slaves, one hundred good deeds will be recorded for him, one hundred bad deeds will be erased from his record, and that will be a protection for him from the Shaytan all that day until evening comes; and no one will bring anything better than what he has brought, except a man who does more than him.
7- Abu Dawud (5077) narrated from Abu ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever says when morning comes, ‘La ilaha ill-Allah wahdahu laa sharika lah, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay in qadir (There is no god except Allah Alone, with no partner or associate; to Him belongs sovereignty, to Him be praise, and He has power over all things)’ he will have a reward equivalent to that of freeing a slave who is one of the descendants of Isma’il, ten good deeds will be recorded for him, ten bad deeds will be erased from his record, he will be raised ten degrees in status, and he will have protection from the Shaytan until evening comes. If he says that when evening comes, he will have something similar until morning comes. Classed as sahih by al-Albani in Sahih Abi Dawud.
8- An-Nasai narrated in al-Kubra (227) that Anas ibn Malik said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to Fatimah: “What is preventing you from listening to the advice I give you? You should say when morning comes and when evening comes: Ya Hayyu ya Qayyum, bi rahmatika astaghith, aslih li sha’ni kullahu, wa la takilni ila nafsi tarfata ‘ayn (O Ever-Living, O Self-sustaining and All-sustaining, by Your mercy I seek help; rectify all my affairs and do not leave me in charge of my affairs even for the blink of an eye). Classed as hasan by al-Albani in as-Sahihah (227).
9- Muslim (2723) narrated that Ibn Mas‘ud said: When evening came, the Prophet of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) would say: “Amsayna wa amsa al-mulku Lillahi, wa’l-hamdu Lillah, la ilaha ill-Allah wahdahu la sharika lah, lahu’l-mulku wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir. Rabbiy as aluka khayra ma fi hadhihi’l-laylah wa khayra ma ba‘daha, wa a‘udhu bika min sharri ma fi hadhihi’l-laylah wa sharri ma ba‘daha. Rabbiy a’udhu bika min al-kasali wa su il-kibari; Rabbiy a‘udhu bika min ‘adhabin fin-nari wa ‘adhabin fi’l-qabr (We have reached the evening and all sovereignty belongs to Allah; praise be to Allah, there is no god but Allah Alone with no partner or associate; to Him belongs sovereignty, to Him be praise, and He has power over all things. My Lord, I ask You for the good of what is in this night and the good of what comes after it, and I seek refuge with You from the evil of what is in this night and the evil of what comes after it. My Lord, I seek refuge with You from laziness and the troubles of old age; my Lord, I seek refuge with You from punishment in the Fire and punishment in the grave).”
When morning came, he would say likewise: “We have reached the morning and all sovereignty belongs to Allah…”
10- Ahmad (18967) narrated that the servant of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “There is no Muslim who says three time, when morning comes and when evening comes, ‘Raditu Billahi Rabban wa bil Islami dinan wa bi Muhammadin sall-Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallama Nabiyyan (I am content with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion, and with Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) as my Prophet),’ but it will be incumbent upon Allah to make him content on the Day of Resurrection.” Classed as sahih because of corroborating evidence by the commentators on al-Musnad.
11- It was narrated from ‘Abdullah ibn Khubayb (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to him: “Say: Qul Huwa Allahu ahad [i.e., Surat al-Ikhlas] and al-Mu‘awwidhatayn [i.e., Surat al-Falaq and Surat an-Nas] three times every evening and every morning, and they will suffice you against everything.” Narrated and classed as sahih by at-Tirmidhi (3575); also narrated by Abu Dawud (5082). Classed as sahih by an-Nawawi in al-Adhkar (p. 107). Classed as hasan by Ibn Hajar in Nataij al-Afkar (2/345) and by al-Albani in Sahih at-Tirmidhi.
12- It was narrated that ‘Uthman ibn ‘Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say: “Whoever says, ‘Bismillah illadhi la yadurru ma ‘a ismihi shay’un fi’l-ardi wa la fi’s-samai wa huwa as-Sami‘ ul-‘Alim (In the name of Allah with Whose name nothing can harm on earth or in heaven, and He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing),’ three times, will not be stricken with a sudden affliction until morning comes, and whoever says it three times when morning comes will not be stricken with a sudden affliction until evening comes.” Narrated by Abu Dawud (5088).
13- It was narrated by at-Tirmidhi (3388) as follows: “There is no one who says in the morning of every day and the evening of every night, ‘Bismillah illadhi la yadurru ma ‘a ismihi shay’un fi’l-ardi wa la fi’s-samai wa huwa as-Sami‘ ul-‘Alim (In the name of Allah with Whose name nothing can harm on earth or in heaven, and He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing),’ three times, but nothing will harm him.” At-Tirmidhi said: It is hasan sahih gharib. It was classed as sahih by Ibn al-Qayyim in Zad al-Ma‘ad (2/338). Also classed as sahih by al-Albani in Sahih Abi Dawud.
14- Abu Dawud (5081) narrated that Abu’d-Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Whoever says, morning and evening, ‘Hasbi Allah, la ilaha ill-Allah, ‘alayhi tawwakaltu wa Huwa Rabb ul-‘Arsh il-‘azim (Allah is sufficient for me, there is no god but He, in Him have I put my trust and He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne)’, seven times, Allah will suffice him against all that concerns him.
This is mawquf but comes under the heading of a marfu‘ report. Its isnad was classed as jayyid by Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Aziz ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him). Please see the answer to question no. 118105 .
15- Muslim (2726) narrated from Juwayriyah that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) left her house one morning after he had prayed Fajr, and she was in her prayer-place, then he came back after the forenoon had come, and she was still sitting there. He said: “Are you still as you were when I left you?” She said: Yes. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “After I left you I said four words three times, which if they were weighed against what you have said today, they would outweigh it: ‘Subhan Allahi wa bi hamdih ‘adada khalqihi wa rida nafsihi wa zinata ‘arshihi wa midada kalimatihi (Glory and praise be to Allah, as much as the number of His creation, as much as pleases Him, as much as the weight of His Throne and as much as the extent of His words)’.”

Welcome to your new journey, and congratulations on your conversion to Islam. Learning and memorizing prayers in Arabic when it’s not your native language is a commendable effort, and it’s completely understandable that you might find the process challenging at first. Your dedication to wanting to pray correctly and understand what you’re reciting is truly admirable.
Firstly, it’s important to know that in Islam, efforts are greatly valued, especially when you are making sincere attempts to learn and grow in your faith. Your situation is not unique, and many converts face similar challenges. Here are some thoughts and advice that might help you along your journey:
1. Use Transliteration
Since you’re comfortable with English and find it challenging to read Arabic, consider using transliteration. For example, the phrase “Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim” can be written as it sounds in English. Look for reliable sources of transliterated prayers online or in Islamic literature, and compare them against audio recitations to ensure accuracy. Feel free to write these transliterations on flashcards and refer to them during your prayers.
2. Practice Through Repetition
Incorporate the verses and prayers you’re learning into your daily routine. Repeat them during your five daily prayers and in moments of downtime, such as while commuting. Repetition is key to memorization; don’t be discouraged if progress seems slow at first. The continuous effort will yield results over time.
3. Employ Creative Memorization Techniques
If traditional memorization methods don’t work for you, get creative. Associate the verses with unique images or scenarios that resonate with you personally. For instance, turning “ar-Rahman ar-Raheem” into a vivid, memorable image can help lock the words into your memory. Use whatever imaginative strategies work best for you.
4. Stay Committed and Be Patient
Recognize that learning and memorizing prayers is a long-term commitment. It may be challenging, but remember that your efforts are seen as an act of devotion in Islam. Allah appreciates your effort and struggles, and there is a greater reward for those who persevere despite difficulties. As stated in a hadith, those who recite the Qur’an with difficulty will be rewarded twice as much. This encouragement underscores the importance of patience and persistence.
Exact Hadith:
Narrated Aisha:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Such a person as recites the Qur’an and masters it by heart, will be with the noble righteous scribes (in Heaven). And such a person exerts himself to learn the Qur’an by heart, and recites it with great difficulty, will have a double reward.”
حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ زُرَارَةَ بْنَ أَوْفَى، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ “ مَثَلُ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَهْوَ حَافِظٌ لَهُ مَعَ السَّفَرَةِ الْكِرَامِ الْبَرَرَةِ، وَمَثَلُ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَهْوَ يَتَعَاهَدُهُ وَهْوَ عَلَيْهِ شَدِيدٌ، فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ ”.
5. Can You Use Notes or Listen to Recitations During Prayer?
While learning, it’s acceptable to refer to your notes or flashcards during prayer to ensure you’re reciting correctly. As for listening to recitations through AirPods and repeating them during prayer, it’s important to consult with a knowledgeable Islamic scholar or your local Imam. Practices can vary, and they can offer guidance tailored to your situation and what is permissible.
Lastly, it’s okay to seek help and support from the Muslim community or fellow converts. Everyone’s journey is unique, and sharing experiences can provide additional encouragement and advice. May Allah guide you and make this journey easy and fulfilling for you.

প্রথমত, প্রতিটি অপরাধ আল্লাহর বিধান লঙ্ঘনের সঙ্গে সম্পৃক্ত। যেহেতু এটা আল্লাহর বিধান, তাই এখানে আল্লাহর নির্দেশের সঙ্গে সম্পৃক্ত। অপরাধ হয়ে যাওয়ার পর আল্লাহর বান্দা যখন কোনোভাবে তার অন্তরের মধ্যে অপরাধবোধ জাগ্রত হবে, সঙ্গে সঙ্গেই সে আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামিনের কাছে তওবা করা শুরু করবে। আল্লাহর কাছে অনুতপ্ত হয়ে কান্নাকাটি করে যদি তওবা করে, আল্লাহতায়ালা যদি সত্যিই সন্তুষ্ট হন, তাহলে আল্লাহ সব ক্ষমা করে দিতে পারেন। কারণ, তিনি তো উদার। তওবা করলে তিনি বান্দার সব গুনাহ ক্ষমা করে দেন। এ জন্য প্রথম কাজ হচ্ছে আপনি আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামিনের কাছে তওবা করবেন যে, আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামিন এটা আমার ভুল হয়ে গেছে, আমাকে ক্ষমা করে দেন। যদি আপনি সত্যিকারভাবেই অনুতপ্ত হন, সত্যিকারভাবে আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামিনের কাছে নিজেকে পেশ করতে পারেন, তাহলে আল্লাহ সুবহানাহু তায়ালা আপনার গুনাহ ক্ষমা করে দেবেন।
দ্বিতীয়ত, মা-বাবার জন্য বেশি বেশি দোয়া করা, তাঁদের জন্য, তাঁদের পক্ষ থেকে বেশি বেশি করে ওই আমলগুলো বা কাজগুলো করা যে কাজগুলো কেয়ামতের দিন আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামিন মা-বাবার আমলনামায় সওয়াব হিসেবে যুক্ত করবেন বা আপনার পক্ষ থেকে তাঁদের আমলনামায় সওয়াব হিসেবে যেগুলো আল্লাহতায়ালা যুক্ত করবেন। এ ধরনের কাজগুলো তাঁদের জন্য করা। এই ভালো কাজগুলোর মধ্যে আপনি সদকা করতে পারেন, হজ, ওমরাহ করাতে পারেন, সমাজকল্যাণমূলক কাজ, মাদ্রাসা করতে পারেন। যেগুলো করলে কেয়ামতের দিন তাঁদের আমলনামার মধ্যে এর নেক আমলগুলো তাঁরা পেয়ে যাবেন। কেয়ামতের দিন যখন মা-বাবা তাঁদের আমলনামায় দেখতে পাবেন যে তাঁরা এই আমল করেননি, তাঁরা অবাক হয়ে যাবেন। এত আমল আমার কীভাবে এলো? আমি তো এত আমল করিনি। কারণ, প্রতিটি ব্যক্তি জানে সে কোন আমল নিয়ে আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামিনের কাছে হাজির হয়েছে। সেদিন মা-বাবা যখন দেখতে পাবেন যে আমি এত আমল করিনি, তখন আল্লাহকে জিজ্ঞেস করবেন, হে রাব্বুল আলামিন এই আমল আমার কীভাবে এলো? আমি তো এগুলো করিনি।
আল্লাহ তখন বলবেন, এগুলো তোমার সন্তানের আমল। কেয়ামতের দিন তাঁরা সন্তুষ্ট হয়ে যাবেন । আপনার জন্য যে অসন্তুষ্টি তাঁরা দুনিয়া থেকে নিয়ে গিয়েছিলেন, এই নেক আমল দেখে আপনার প্রতি সেই সন্তুষ্টি এসে যাবে। তখন তারা তাদের হক আল্লাহ রাব্বুল আলামিনের কাছে তালাশ করবে না, চাইবে না। আল্লাহর কাছে তারা আপনার বিরুদ্ধে অভিযোগ করবে না। তখন তাঁরা বলবেন, রাব্বুল আলামিন আমাদের সন্তান তো আমাদের জন্য করেছে, আমরা জানতাম না যে তারা আমাদের জন্য কিছু করেছে, কিন্তু তারা অনেক কিছু করেছে। তাদের ক্ষমা করে দিন। তারাও তখন তাঁদের সন্তানদের ক্ষমা করে দেবেন। এভাবেই আপনি আল্লাহ এবং পিতা-মাতা দুই পক্ষেরই যে হক সেটা আদায় করতে পারবেন। এ জন্য এই দুটি কাজ সুন্দরভাবে আনজাম দেওয়ার চেষ্টা করুন। ইনশাআল্লাহ আল্লাহতায়ালা হয়তো আপনাকেও কেয়ামতের দিন তাঁদের সন্তুষ্টি অর্জনের পথ খুলে দেবেন।
