حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَمَرَهُ أَبُوهُ أَوْ أُمُّهُ شَكَّ شُعْبَةُ ، أَنْ يُطَلِّقَ امْرَأَتَهُ ، فَجَعَلَ عَلَيْهِ مِائَةَ مُحَرَّرٍ ، فَأَتَى أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ يُصَلِّي الضُّحَى وَيُطِيلُهَا وَصَلَّى مَا بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ ، فَسَأَلَهُ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ : أَوْفِ بِنَذْرِكَ وَبِرَّ وَالِدَيْكَ ، وَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " الْوَالِدُ أَوْسَطُ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ فَحَافِظْ عَلَى وَالِدَيْكَ أَوِ اتْرُكْ " .
´It was narrated from 'Abdur-Rahman that:` a man's father or mother - Shu'bah (one of the namators) was not sure - ordered him to divorce his wife, and he made a vow that he would free one hundred slaves if he did that. He came to Abu Darda' while he was praying the Duha, and he was making his prayer lengthy, and he prayed between Zuhr and 'Asr. Then he asked him and Abu Darda' said: "Fulfill your vow and honor your parents." Abu Ad-Darda' said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: '(Honoring) one's father may lead one to enter through the best of the gates of Paradise; so take care of your parents, (it is so, whether you take care of them) or not. "

➊ Serving and obeying one’s parents is a means of entering Paradise.
➋ Keeping one’s parents pleased is the best means of entering Paradise.
➌ A believer has a great desire for Paradise; therefore, one should be very mindful of obeying one’s parents so that Paradise may be attained.

Benefits and Issues:
➊ Serving the father is an important means of entering Paradise.
➋ Wasting (losing) means that if you anger your father, the door of Paradise will not be opened for you; in this way, you will lose the door of Paradise.
➌ Preserving means that if you please your father, then surely the door of Paradise will be opened for you.
➍ If the father commands something that involves the displeasure of Allah, then it is not permissible to obey the father; however, even in this situation, serving and respecting the father remains necessary.
