Sorry, this is incorrect.
The correct answer is : When they pressure you to associate Allah whom you don’t know
Ref: Surah Luqman 31:15
Arabic:
وَإِن جَـٰهَدَاكَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن تُشْرِكَ بِى مَا لَيْسَ لَكَ بِهِۦ عِلْمٌۭ فَلَا تُطِعْهُمَا ۖ وَصَاحِبْهُمَا فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا مَعْرُوفًۭا ۖ وَٱتَّبِعْ سَبِيلَ مَنْ أَنَابَ إِلَىَّ ۚ ثُمَّ إِلَىَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَأُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ١٥
Translation:
But if they pressure you to associate with Me what you have no knowledge of,1 do not obey them. Still keep their company in this world courteously, and follow the way of those who turn to Me ˹in devotion˺. Then to Me you will ˹all˺ return, and then I will inform you of what you used to do.
Tafseer / Explanation:
-
Allah instructs that if parents strive to make you commit shirk, you must not obey them in that matter.
-
Obedience to creation is never allowed if it contradicts obedience to the Creator.
-
However, Allah still commands believers to live with their parents in kindness and good conduct.
-
The balance is shown: no compromise in Tawheed, yet continuous respect and service to parents.
-
The verse teaches prioritizing Allah’s command above all while maintaining family ties with compassion.
