regularly visit, call, and exchange gifts, and never abandon your family.
4.Daily ask Ar-Rahmaan to have mercy on your parents!
"My Lord, have mercy upon them as they brought me up [when I was] small." [Quran, 17:23-24]
۞ وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوٓاْ إِلَّآ إِيَّاهُ وَبِٱلۡوَٲلِدَيۡنِ إِحۡسَـٰنًا ۚ إِمَّا يَبۡلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ ٱلۡڪِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَآ أَوۡ كِلَاهُمَا فَلَا تَقُل لَّهُمَآ أُفٍّ وَلَا تَنۡہَرۡهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوۡلاً ڪَرِيمًا
"And your Lord has Qada (decreed) that you worship none but Him.And that you be dutiful to your parents. If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of disrespect, nor reprimand them but address them in terms of honor." (Quran17:23)
۞وَٱخۡفِضۡ لَهُمَا جَنَاحَ ٱلذُّلِّ مِنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَةِ وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱرۡحَمۡهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِى صَغِيرًا
And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy, and say:"My Lord! Bestow on them Your mercy as they did bring me up when I was young.'' (Quran 17:24)
5.Recognize mercy and be grateful.
Reflect upon Allah's mercy when you see all the blessings around you.
Eg: food, water, oxygen etc.
Ar-Rahmaan Himself says:
۞تَنزِيلٌ مِّنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
"A revelation from the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful"
[Quran 41:2]
۞قُلِ ٱدۡعُواْ ٱللَّهَ أَوِ ٱدۡعُواْ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنَ ۖ أَيًّا مَّا تَدۡعُواْ فَلَهُ ٱلۡأَسۡمَآءُ ٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰ ۚ وَلَا تَجۡهَرۡ بِصَلَاتِكَ وَلَا تُخَافِتۡ بِہَا وَٱبۡتَغِ بَيۡنَ ذَٲلِكَ سَبِيلاً
"Say: "Invoke Allah or invoke Ar-Rahman (the Most Gracious), by whatever name you invoke Him (it is the same), for to Him belong the Best Names. And offer your Salah (prayer) neither aloud nor in a low voice, but follow a way between."
(17:110)
۞ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
"The Beneficent, the Merciful."
(1:2)
۞قُلۡ مَن يَكۡلَؤُڪُم بِٱلَّيۡلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ مِنَ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ۗ بَلۡ هُمۡ عَن ذِڪۡرِ رَبِّهِم مُّعۡرِضُونَ
"Say: "Who can guard and protect you in the night or in the day from the Most Gracious!'' Nay, but they turn away from the remembrance of their Lord."
(21:42)
۞وَأَطِيعُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَٱلرَّسُولَ لَعَلَّڪُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ
"And obey Allah and the Messenger that you may obtain mercy."
(3:132)
۞وَإِذَا قُرِئَ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانُ فَٱسۡتَمِعُواْ لَهُ ۥ وَأَنصِتُواْ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ
"So, when the Qur'an is recited, listen to it, and be silent that you may receive mercy."
(7:204)
6. We have to seek Taqwa from Almighty Allah.
۞ وَٱڪۡتُبۡ لَنَا فِى هَـٰذِهِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِى ٱلۡأَخِرَةِ إِنَّا هُدۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ ۚ قَالَ عَذَابِىٓ أُصِيبُ بِهِۦ مَنۡ أَشَآءُ ۖ وَرَحۡمَتِى وَسِعَتۡ كُلَّ شَىۡءٍ ۚ فَسَأَكۡتُبُہَا لِلَّذِينَ يَتَّقُونَ وَيُؤۡتُونَ ٱلزَّڪَوٰةَ وَٱلَّذِينَ هُم بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ
"And ordain for us good in this world, and in the Hereafter. Certainly we have Hudna unto You.
He said: (As to) My punishment I afflict therewith whom I will and My mercy embraces all things. That (mercy) I shall ordain for those who have Taqwa, and give Zakah; and those who believe in Our Ayat." (7:156)
7.Recieve the mercy of Almighty Allah by offering four rakats of Sunnah prayers before Asr Prayer.
Ibn 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"May Allah have mercy on a man who performs four Rak'ah before the 'Asr prayer.''
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi].
May Almighty Allah shower His endless mercy upon all of His creation and help us to be merciful towards others and to implement all what we have learnt today!
Aameen.
Jazakum Allahu Khairan.
"سُبْحَانَكَ اللْهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ"
'Glory be to You O Allah, and with Your praise, I testify that there is no God (worthy of worship) except You, I seek Your forgiveness, and I repent to You.'
