The mother takes precedence over

Q 2: I had a mother whom I loved so much and I paid all the expenses she needed for medication and other things. I did not deprive her of anything and I used to say to her "All my money is for you, mother." She used to love me deeply. I did not see her during the three days preceding her death. Women used to visit her at the time of her deathbed. I used to get embarrassed from women who visit her. I was at the service of the children of my brother in a house away from our home. At the time of her death - may Allah be merciful to her - I stood by her side and she was leaning her mouth toward me to clean it because of the traces hung in it that made me kiss her head and hand until she died. Am I undutiful to her? What are things which I should do after the death of my mother in order for her to be pleased with me because I used to love her very much to the extent that I wished to die after her death.

A: If the matter is as mentioned, there will be no blame on you. You should invoke Allah for her and give in charity on her behalf as much as you can.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
