37. The Reward of Gazing at One’s Parents with Mercy

Rasulullah (Sallellaho Alaihe Wasallam) said, “Those pious children who look at their parents with the gaze of mercy, Allah Ta'ala will write for them the reward of an accepted Hajj for every gaze,” Here the restriction ‘pious’ has been added. At least this person should be fulfilling the Fardh, Wajib and Sunnate Mu’akkadah, and should be abstaining from sins. If such pious children look at their parents with mercy, they will be granted the reward of an accepted Hajj on every glance. However, they will gain the reward of a Nafl Hajj, not a Fardh one. It should not be that thousands of rupees are gathered in the safe, and a person looks at his parents with mercy and then thinks that his Fardh Hajj has been completed. The Fardh Hajj will only take place by presenting yourself in the Haram. Remember the condition for receiving the reward of a Hajj by looking at one’s parents is that one must be pious. It should not be that there is no Salaah, no fasting and one is involved drinking. He then goes and looks at his parents with the gaze of mercy, and then thinks that he has attained the reward of a Nafl Hajj. To be pious is a prerequisite. The Sahabah (Radhiallaho Anhum) asked, “If this person looks 100 times with mercy, will he earn so much reward?” That is, will he gain the rewards of one hundred Hajj.” Rasulullah (Sallellaho Alaihe Wasallam) answered with two words ???? ???????? ?????????? Allah Ta'ala possesses a greater quality of mercy than the mercy you possess ????????   ?refers to the mercy that if you look one hundred times, He will grant the reward of 100 accepted Nafl Hajj. By the???????? Rasulullah (Sallellaho Alaihe Wasallam) showed the pureness of Allah Ta'ala that Allah Ta'ala is free from every fault. If someone thinks that perhaps Allah Ta'ala will get tired of giving so much reward or some decrease will be found in His reserves so he should realize that Allah Ta'ala is pure from all shortcomings. He neither gets tired, nor is there any decrease in His treasures. He is not deficient in giving reward.
