What is Āq al-Walidayn?
Allama Majlisi (r.a.) writes in his commentary on al-KÄfi:
Ä€q al-Walidayn means that the son or the daughter cause disrespect to parents by speech or actions. Or they do not obey them in matters which are within reason and matters which are not in any way against religion.
Ä€q al-Walidayn is absolutely HarÄm. The books of traditions of both the Shias as well as the Sunnis validate this fact.
To look at the parents with anger is Ä€q, to cause unhappiness to the parents results in Ä€q. It is HarÄm to take any step, which one is sure, will displease the parents.
