Kindness to Parents, Relatives, Kinsfolk and Severance of Ties — Hadith 6

6. Faḍālah ibn Ayyūb narrated from Sayf ibn ʿAmīrah, from Ibn Muskān, from Ibrāhīm ibn Shuʿayb who said, “I said to Abū ʿAbdillāh (a), ‘Verily my father has become very old and weak, so we carry him [to the lavatory] when he needs to relieve himself. ’ He said, ‘If you can continue doing that [yourself] then do so, and feed him morsels with your own hand, for that will be a shield for you tomorrow [from the Fire]. ’”
