“I asked abu Ja‘far (a.s.) about the words of Allah, the Most High. “(Among) the servants of the Beneficent God are those who walk gently on the earth . .” (25:63) The Imam (a.s.) said, “They are the executors of the will (The Holy Prophet (s.a) who are afraid of their enemies.” Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from Bastam ibn Murra from ishaq ibn Hassa’n from al-Haytham ibn Waqid from Ali ibn al-Husayn al-‘Abdi from Sa‘d al-’Iskaf from Asbagh ibn Nabata that he asked Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.) about the words of Allah, the Most High. “. . to give thanks to Me first and then to them, (parents) to Me all things proceed (31:14).The Imam (a.s.) said, “The parents who must be thanked are the ones who provide knowledge, and leave wisdom as their legacy and people are commanded to obey them. Allah then has said, “. . to Me all things proceed.” (31:14) People proceed to Allah and the guide to such goal are the parents. Allah then has directed His words to ibn Hantama and his friend saying in particular and in general, “If they try to force you to consider things equal to Me,. .” (31:15) It speaks of the will of The Holy Prophet (s.a). It demands not to ignore the command to obey him (Ali (a.s.) otherwise, do not obey them (parents) and do not listen to them. Then Allah has directed His words to the parents. “Maintain lawful relations with them in this world. .” (31:15) It says that propagate the virtue and excellence of the (spiritual) parents and call people to their guidance which is also mentioned in these words of Allah. “. . and follow the path of those who turn in repentance to Me. To Me you will all return. .” (31:15) The Imam (a.s.) said, “To Allah then to us. You must be pious before Allah and do not disobey the parents. To please them is to please Allah and to cause them anger is to cause anger to Allah.”
