Tujhe sub hai pata meri Maa ... you know every thing my Mom
The heart of a home is a mother
Whose love is warm and true,
And home has always been "sweet home"
With a wonderful mother like you!
*
Just one little wish for you, Mom,
But it's loving and happy and true-
It's a wish that the nicest and best things
Will always keep coming to you!
*
Sending this, Mom, especially to say
Wishing you a happy
And wonderful day...
And to tell you this day will always be one
For remembering the many
Sweet things you have done!
*
Here's wishing you a Mother's Day
That's filled with every pleasure,
And a future that's as happy
As the memories you treasure!
*
Mother's Day...
a time for warm thoughts
and fond memories,
for expressing
the feelings and words
that often go unspoken,
for letting
those special people
in our lives know
that they are loved
and appreciated -
always.
*
Somehow we always say the least
to those we love the best
And hope our thoughts
are understood.
Although they're unexpressed -
That's why it means
so very much,
when days like this are here
To say how very much
you're loved
each day throughout the year.
Happy Mother's Day
*
You wash my prints from walls and doors,
For I am not careful where I play.
But here is a print you'll want to keep.
It's made for you this Mother's Day.
*
That Wonderful Mother of Mine
The moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of that wonderful mother of mine.
The birds never sing but a message they bring
Of that wonderful mother of mine.
Just to bring back the time, that was so sweet to me,
Just to bring back the days, when I sat on her knee.
I pray every night to our Father above,
For that wonderful mother of mine.
I ask Him to keep her as long as He can
That -- wonderful mother of mine.
There are treasures on earth, that made life seem worthwhile,
But there's none can compare to my mother's smile.
You are a wonderful mother, dear old Mother of mine.
You'll hold a spot down deep in my heart,
'Till the stars no longer shine.
Your soul shall live on forever,
On through the fields of time.
For there'll never be another to me,
Each melodious measure,
Oft the teardrops flowing,
Oft they flow from my memory's treasure.
*
Mom, you know you're more than welcome
to come over to my place for dinner,
but there's one little problem...
...all the food I have needs to be cooked.
Happy Mother's Day
*
I'm glad I've got you for a mother...
...some stranger wouldn't have
put up with me this long.
Happy Mother's Day
*
A mother deserves her children's
full attention on Mother's Day!
Have you thought about
standing in front of the TV screen?
Happy Mother's Day
*
I want to thank you, Mother,
for your patience...
your encouragement...
your strength...
your generosity...
your unswerving love...
and for those six little words
that helped me through
so many trying times...
"...because I said so, that's why!"
Happy Mother's Day
*
I got all my good qualities
from you Mom.
Isn't it lucky you had more
than enough for both of us?
Happy Mother's Day
*
Wishing you
all the love
and happiness
you so richly deserve!
Happy Mother's Day
*
Wishing you songbirds
to welcome each morning,
Wishing you flowers
to brighten each spring,
Wishing you laughter,
and sharing and caring,
And all of the joy
that each new day
can bring!
Happy Mother's Day
*
For all the
loving things you are
and caring things you do,
we're sending you
this special wish-
multiplied by two!
Have a Beautiful Day
*
May all the love
you give to others
come back to you
on this special day.
Have a Wonderful Mother's Day
*
Remembering you
on Mother's Day
is one of my
favourite things to do!
Have a Beautiful Day
*
Happy Mother's Day
to a mom who should have been
an air traffic controller...
...I was grounded so often!
*
There is no blessing
quite so dear...
as a mom like you
to love year after year.
Happy Mother's Day
*
Mom...
who never sends you
out into the cruel world...
...without first wrapping you up
in the warmth of her love.
Happy Mother's Day
*
Mom, if it weren't for you,
I wouldn't have the sense
to come in out of the rain.
Of course, I also wouldn't have
this inordinate fear of
catching pneumonia either!
Happy Mother's Day
*
Mom, over the years,
I've watched
the wonderful ways
you've made life special
for our family...
the moments of love
and laughter,
the traditions
and memories
we'll carry with us
throughout our lives.
But most of all
I've watched the way
you've shown us
the true meaning of love
in everything you do.
Happy Mother's Day
*
Only a mother
can communicate love
without saying a word.
For the many unspoken ways
that you share your love
in our family,
I hope you know that you're
loved and appreciated
beyond measure.
Have a Beautiful
Mother's Day
*
With all the special ways
you show us
that you care....
....no wonder we love you
so much!
Have a Beautiful
Mother's Day
*
Although I hope
you already know,
my love for you
just grows and grows!
you already know,
my love for you
just grows and grows!
Sunday 10th May Mothers Day coming Soon...
My mother rights over me, My rights over her, and the extent of my Independence
1 – The mothers rights over her child
The mother has many major rights over her child. These rights are innumerable, but we may mention the following:
(a) Love and respect, as much as possible, because she is the most deserving of people of her son’s good companionship.
Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: “A man came to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said, ‘O Messenger of Allaah, who among the people is most deserving of my good companionship?’ He said, ‘Your mother.’ The man asked, ‘Then who?’ He said, ‘Your mother.’ He asked, then who?’ He said, ‘Your mother.’ He asked, ‘Then who?’ He said, ‘Your father.’”
She is the one who made her womb a vessel for you and nourished you from her breast. You have no option but to love her. The fitrah (natural inclination of man) calls you to love her. Love between mothers and children and children and mothers is something that Allaah has instilled even in animals, so it is even more befitting for the children of human beings, and for Muslims in particular.
(b) Taking care of her and looking after her affairs if she needs that; this is a debt that rests on the child’s shoulders. Did she not take care of him when he was a child and stay up with him at night and bear it all with patience ?
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And We have enjoined on man to be dutiful and kind to his parents. His mother bears him with hardship. And she brings him forth with hardship…” [al-Ahqaaf 46:15]
This even take precedence over jihaad if there is a conflict between the two. Abd-Allaah ibn Amr ibn al-Aas (may Allaah be pleased with them both) said: “A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and asked him for permission to participate in jihaad. The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to him, ‘Are your parents alive?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘Then your jihaad is with them.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2842; Muslim, 2549)
(c) Not offending them or saying or doing anything that they dislike.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “say not to them a word of disrespect” [al-Israa’ 17:23]
1 – The mothers rights over her child
The mother has many major rights over her child. These rights are innumerable, but we may mention the following:
(a) Love and respect, as much as possible, because she is the most deserving of people of her son’s good companionship.

Abd-Allaah ibn Amr ibn al-Aas (may Allaah be pleased with them both) said: “A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and asked him for permission to participate in jihaad. The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to him, ‘Are your parents alive?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘Then your jihaad is with them.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2842; Muslim, 2549)
(c) Not offending them or saying or doing anything that they dislike.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “say not to them a word of disrespect” [al-Israa’ 17:23]
(d) Spending on her if she is in need and does not have a husband who can spend on her or if her husband is poor; for the righteous, spending on ones mother and feeding her is more precious than feeding their own children.
Ibn Umar (may Allaah be pleased with them both) narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Three men went out walking and rain began to fall on them. They entered a cave in a mountain, then a rock fell (blocking the entrance to the cave). They said to one another, Pray to Allaah by virtue of the best deeds that you have done. One of them said, O Allaah, my parents were elderly and I used to go out and tend to my flocks, then I would milk them and bring the milk to my parents for them to drink from it, then I would give some to my children. One night I came home late and found them sleeping. I did not want to wake them, and the children were crying at my feet. I kept waiting and the children kept crying until dawn broke. O Allaah, if You knew that I did that for Your sake, then open a way for us through which we can see the sky. So a way was opened for them…” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2102; Muslim, 2743).
(e) Obeying her when she tells you to do something good. But if she tells you to do something bad, such as shirk, then there should be no obedience to any created being if it involves disobedience to the Creator.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “But if they (both) strive with you to make you join in worship with Me others that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not; but behave with them in the world kindly” [Luqmaan 31:15]
(f) After ones mother dies, it is Sunnah to fulfil any vows that she had made, and to give charity and perform Hajj and Umrah on her behalf.
It was reported from Ibn Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with them both) that a woman from Juhaynah came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: “My mother vowed to go for Hajj, but she died before she did so. Can I perform Hajj on her behalf?” He said, “Yes, perform Hajj on her behalf. Do you not think that if your mother owed a debt that you would pay it off for her? Fulfil her debt to Allaah, for Allaah is more deserving that what is owed to Him should be paid.” (narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1754).
(g) After she dies, it is also Sunnah to honor her by maintaining ties with those whom she used to keep in touch with, such as her relatives and friends.
It was narrated from Abd-Allaah ibn Umar that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The best of righteous deeds is for a man to keep in touch with his fathers friends after he dies.” (Narrated by Muslim, 2552).
2 – Your rights over your mother
(a) That she should take care of you when you are a child, breastfeeding and nurturing you. This is a well known aspect of human nature that has been handed down from the beginning of creation.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “The mothers shall give suck to their children for two whole years, (that is) for those (parents) who desire to complete the term of suckling” [al-Baqarah 2:233]
(b) She should bring you up in a righteous manner, for she will be responsible for that before Allaah on the Day of Resurrection. You are part of her “flock” and she is your “shepherd”.
It was reported that Abd-Allaah ibn Umar said: “I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: ‘Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock. The imaam is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock. A man is the shepherd of his family and is responsible for his flock. A woman is the shepherd of her husband’s house and is responsible for her flock. A servant is the shepherd of his master’s wealth and is responsible for his flock.’ I think that he said, ‘A man is the shepherd of his father’s wealth and is responsible for his flock. Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 853; Muslim, 1829)
3 – Permissible things that it is permissible for you to do without your mother interfering in your affairs
She does not have the right to make decisions about what you should like with regard to permissible things over which she has no authority, such as food, drink, clothing, means of transportation, etc.
Neither does she have the right to interfere in your choice of a wife – if she is righteous – so long as you are not disobeying Allaah with regard to that. At the same time it is prescribed (by Islam) that you should try to please her even in your choice of a wife, if she advises you in a way that will not harm you.
With regard to her interfering with such matters as when you go out of the house or come in, or your going out in the evening with your friends: both parents have to watch their children with regard to this, so as to keep control of things and not let their children be led astray by bad company. In most cases, when young people are corrupted it is because of bad company.
Concerning this matter, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “A man will follow the way of his close friend, so let each of you look to who his close friends are.” (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2387; Abu Dawood, 4833. This hadeeth was classed as hasan by al-Tirmidhi and as saheeh by al-Nawawi, as stated in Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi, 7/42).
Parents also have to watch when their child goes out and when he comes in, because they should not give him free rein, especially if he is not righteous.
You have to acknowledge their status and respect them and offer them good companionship, even if they give you a hard time with regard to things that Allaah has made permissible for you. Allaah has commanded us to treat our parents well even if they are kuffaar who call you to shirk, so how about if they are calling us to something which they sincerely believe to be good? Even if sometimes it causes you some difficulty with regard to something that is permissible for you, the best thing to do is to obey them and do what they want. Even though you do not have to do this, it is a kind of sacrifice and giving them preference, because they are the most deserving of being given good treatment. In the Quraan, Allaah has mentioned obedience to parents immediately after worship of Him, in order to demonstrate the high status afforded obedience to parents.
4 – Your father has the final say concerning everything that comes under his responsibility.
For example, he is the one who decides in which school a child who is dependent on him will study. The father also has the final say concerning anything to do with his property, such as your using his car, taking his money, etc.
With regard to a son who is grown up and independent, he makes his own decisions concerning things that Allaah has permitted. It is prescribed for him to please his father so long as that does not conflict with his obedience towards Allaah. The son must continue to respect his father no matter how old he gets, because this has to do with honoring one’s parents and treating them kindly. It was narrated that Ibn Umar said: “I never climbed onto the roof of a house in which my father was.”
If a father tells a child to do something good, or to stop doing something that is permissible, he should obey him so long as that will not cause the son any harm.
5 – With regard to how you can tell your mother that you want more freedom, this can be achieved by words and by deeds.
(a) Deeds
After proving to your mother in practical terms that you are no longer the child whom she used to know and that you have become a man who is able to bear responsibility and you behave like a man in front of her, if she sees that repeatedly, she will trust you. Then things will start to get better and you will have a higher status in your mother’s eyes.
(b) Words
By clearly proving, quietly discussing and speaking softly, giving examples of your sound attitude. May Allaah open your mother’s heart so that she will deal with you as a wise, mature, sensible, adult man, so long as you are like that.
