Quran Verses About Family

(Divorced) mothers will breastfeed their offspring for two whole years, for those who wish to complete the nursing (of their child). The child’s father will provide reasonable maintenance and clothing for the mother (during that period). No one will be charged with more than they can bear. No mother or father should be made to suffer for their child. The (father’s) heirs are under the same obligation. But if both sides decide—after mutual consultation and consent—to wean a child, then there is no blame on them. And if you decide to have your children nursed by a wet-nurse, it is permissible as long as you pay fairly. Be mindful of Allah, and know that Allah is All-Seeing of what you do.

O humanity! Be mindful of your Lord Who created you from a single soul, and from it He created its mate, and through both He spread countless men and women. And be mindful of Allah—in Whose Name you appeal to one another—and (honour) family ties. Surely Allah is ever Watchful over you.

For your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And honour your parents. If one or both of them reach old age in your care, never say to them (even) ‘ugh,’ nor yell at them. Rather, address them respectfully.

And We have commanded people to (honour) their parents. Their mothers bore them through hardship upon hardship, and their weaning takes two years. So be grateful to Me and your parents. To Me is the final return

We have commanded people to honour their parents. Their mothers bore them in hardship and delivered them in hardship. Their (period of) bearing and weaning is thirty months. In time, when the child reaches their prime at the age of forty, they pray, “My Lord! Inspire me to (always) be thankful for Your favours which You blessed me and my parents with, and to do good deeds that please You. And instil righteousness in my offspring. I truly repent to You, and I truly submit (to Your Will).”
