The Prophet’s ﷺ command to show kindness to parents
"A man came to the Prophet of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and asked, 'What do you command me to do?' He replied, 'Be dutiful towards your mother.' Then he asked him the same question again and he replied, 'Be dutiful towards your mother.' He repeated it yet again and the Prophet replied, 'Be dutiful towards your mother.' Then he put the question a fourth time and the Prophet said, 'Be dutiful towards your father.'"
أَتَى رَجُلٌ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا تَأْمُرُنِي؟ فَقَالَ بِرَّ أُمَّكَ ثُمَّ عَادَ فَقَالَ بِرَّ أُمَّكَ ثُمَّ عَادَ فَقَالَ بِرَّ أُمَّكَ ثُمَّ عَادَ الرَّابِعَةَ فَقَالَ بِرَّ أَبَاكَ
