Her abdomen was your container, her lap your seat, her breast your container of drink, and her soul was your fort. She protected you from heat and cold. You should thank her for all that. You will not be able to show her gratitude unless through Allah's help and giving success."
Filial piety becomes nicer and more influential when it is done to the aged parents who are in exigent need for affection:
"If either or both of your parents should become advanced in age, do not express to them words which show your slightest disappointment -such as 'ugh'-. Never yell at them but always speak to them with kindness. Be humble and merciful towards them and say, "Lord, have mercy upon them as they cherished me in my childhood." (17:24)"
It is related that a man asked the Prophet (s), "God's Messenger, I am treating my aged parents as same as their treatment to me when I was child. Have I now performed their rights that are imposed upon me?" The Prophet (s) answered: "No, you have not, because, when they treated you kindly during your childhood, they wanted you to live. But, now, while you are treating them kindly, you wish they would die." 441
Ibrahim ibn Shuaib narrated: I told Imam as-Sadiq (a) that I used to carry my aged and weak father when he wanted to relieve nature. The Imam commented: "If you can do more than this, you must do it. You should feed him bit by bit, because he will guard you (from Hell) in the morrow." 442
Filial piety is not restricted to the living parents. It becomes more necessary for the dead parents, because they are in need for piety more than the alive do.
