A mother is special.
She's as soft and graceful as a butterfly,
yet as strong and courageous
as a grizzly bear.
Her heart is large enough to hold
everyone's pain and joy.
Her hands are always gentle and soothing.
Her arms are always warm and tender.
She works hard to make a
home feel like home,
and she strives to make life pleasant
and comfortable for those she loves.
She never fails to go that extra mile to
make the holidays happy and memorable.
Her job is the most difficult and
demanding ever known to any human being,
yet she's fully dedicated to the task.
She's always there for her family,
guiding them and keeping them safe from harm.
She owns a magical way to raise
spirits and make everything feel better.
And her sympathy, unselfishness
and forgiveness are unending.
All that anyone is or could ever hope to be
can be attributed to a mother.
She instills the teachings
that will last a lifetime.
She sows the seeds of virtue and morality,
and in the process, she opens up love
and vast horizons.
She's always watching and hoping that
her children's goals will have meaning.
She always listens and tries to understand
even when it's difficult to do so.
She's a true friend in every sense of the word.
She's noble and sublime,
and holds all the beauty of a golden day,
yet even during the storms,
she always shines bright like an evening star.
Her name should be honored well,
for she's the closest thing to God on earth.
The Quran
1. "We have enjoined on man kindness to his parents; in pain did his
mother bear him, and in pain did she give him birth" (46:15).
2. "Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him, and that ye
be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy
life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address
them in terms of honor. And out of kindness, lower to them the wing
of humility, and say: `My Lord! bestow on them Thy Mercy even as they
cherished me in childhood' "(17:23-24).
3. "We have enjoined on man and woman kindness to parents; but if
they (either of them) strive (to force) thee to join with Me anything
of which thou hast no knowledge, obey them not'" (29:8).
4. "We have enjoined on man and woman (to be good) to his/her
parents; show gratitude to Me and to thy parents; to Me is (thy
final) Goal. If they (parents) strive to make thee join in worship
with Me things of which thou hast no knowledge, obey them not; yet
bear them company in this life with justice (and consideration) and
follow the way of those who turn to Me (in love)" (31:14-15).
Love your mother

you wake up each day, hold your mother, give her a Red Rose. Express

The Hadith
1. The Prophet Muhammad said, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon
him: Your Heaven lies under the feet of your mother (Ahmad, Nasai).
2. A man came to the Prophet and said, `O Messenger of God! Who among
the people is the most worthy of my good companionship? The Prophet
said: Your mother. The man said, `Then who?' The Prophet said: Then
your mother. The man further asked, `Then who?' The Prophet said:
Then your mother. The man asked again, `Then who?' The Prophet said:
Then your father. (Bukhari, Muslim).
3. Abu Usaid Saidi said: We were once sitting with Rasulullah when a
man from the tribe of Salmah came and said to him: O Messenger of
Allah! do my parents have rights over me even after they have died?
And Rasulullah said: Yes. You must pray to Allah to bless them with
His Forgiveness and Mercy, fulfill the promises they made to anyone,
and respect their relations and their friends (Abu Dawud and Ibn
Majah).
4. Abdullah ibn Amr related that the Messenger of Allah said: The
major sins are to believe that Allah has partners, to disobey one's
parents, to commit murder, and to bear false witness (Bukhari,
Muslim).
5. It is narrated by Asma bint Abu Bakr that during the treaty of
Hudaibiyah, her mother, who was then pagan, came to see her from
Makkah. Asma informed the Messenger of Allah of her arrival and also
that she needed help. He said: Be good to your mother (Bukhari,
Muslim).
Salaam (Peace be upon you), Andrea (Saleema)
"To God belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth. Whether you show what is in your own selves or conceal it, God will call you to account for it. Then He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom He wills, for God is Able to do all things." (Qur'an 2:284).
***************************************************************************
{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
