Kindness to Parents: Islam has raised the importance of kindness to parents to the highest possible level. In numerous verses of the holy Quran, kindness to parents is mentioned immedeatly after belief in God. This shows that it is perhaps the most important action a Muslim must take after belief in God. Muslims are also instructed to take care of their parents, especially in their old age, just as their parents took care of them when they were young and weak. Muslims are forbidden from uttering even a single word of displeasure towards their parents. Kindness to Spouses: There is a lot of emphasis in Islam on kind and fair treatment of spouses. The Quran describes marriage as tranquility and contentment, and teaches that God has created feelings of love and mercy between the spouses. In fact, the Quran further describes spouses as being garments for each other, in a reference to the sense of protection and warmth that spouses should provide to each other. Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) forbade Muslims from mistreating and being unjust to their spouses. He went even further by saying that the best of men are those who treat their wives in the best way.
