1.About this video

This new short on the Razia Azeem Official channel is about the rank of the mother in Islam — “Maa ke qadmon me Jannat”, Paradise lies beneath the mother’s feet. In under a minute, it reminds us that serving our parents, and especially our mother, is among the greatest doors to Paradise and the pleasure of Allah.

2.Key reflections

The Quran places kindness to parents right after the command to worship Allah alone: “And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him, and be kind to parents” (Quran 17:23). The Prophet ﷺ told a companion who sought permission for jihad: “Stay with your mother, for Paradise is beneath her feet” (Sunan Ibn Majah 2781) — and he taught that the pleasure of Allah lies in the pleasure of parents (Sunan al-Tirmidhi 1899). A mother’s dua is a treasure; serving her in her old age is not a burden but an honor Allah chose for us.

3.Watch & share

Watch the full short above, share it with your family — especially anyone whose parents are still alive — and subscribe to the channel for a new reminder every day. And if your mother is with you today, go and sit with her for a few minutes; that itself is worship.
