A PRECIOUS GIFT…!!!

LOVE YOUR MOTHER

There was a boy who loved her mother very much and so did his mother, too.They wee very poor and lived from hand to mouth.They had no kith and kin elsewhere.The mother was very old and passing the last days of her life but she had the wish of getting her son educated so that he might have a bright future.She used to cut woods all the day and the little earning she got in the evening was spent in the fee of her son

The boy got appreciable mraks in matric and got admission in a competent college .In college unfortunately, the boy induldged in bad company, started smoking and his obidiency towards his mother becoming turning into disobediency.Her mother scolded him for his bad company, the boy to it ill , became angry on mother’s advice and left his house.Her mother remained alone in the house and daily she sought her her way but he didn’t came.The boy had very little money with him when he left the house.

After somedays he was left with nothing so he decided to work on a hotel.All the day long he worked hard and got very little reward against his effort.In the scoching sun when hunger teased him nobody was there to ask him about his hunger and his mother’s word knocked the door of his mind ” Haven’t you taken meal yet , my dear son.Come here its ready for you. ” , her mother fed him herself usually…..Whenever he fell ill due to excessive work in the blazing sun, nobody asked him to take rest rather the unpleasent and cruel voices, ” goffer! bring tea and breads ” added to his discomfort, then he used to think of his mother’s kindness who never let him leave the bed unless he was all right and thinking those days & memories tears came from his eyes but nobody was there to wipe out them now.

One night walking alone he passed through a barren place where he saw a blinking light glowing very intensely.He went near it , it was a firefly.He asked him ” Why are you roaming about? ” The firefly rplied, ” I was enjoying a very happy life wit my mother for me day and night, keep herself hungry but fed me regularly.One day I disobeyed her and left the house in anger.From that very day I am wandering to search my mother but couldn’t find her yet. I am ready to devote my whole life to he who might bring my mother back, she the most precious wealth for me in this world.

It knocked the sensation of the boy and was unbearable for him he decided to go to his house back but when he reached his home back a bad news was waiting for him.Actually his mother was no more in htis world>He found a piece of paper on the gate which was in fact it was a bequest in which was written ” Dear son though you’d left me without thinking of my impotency but I am a mother I waited, waited and waited for you but eventually I ‘ve to go to my next home, the immortal one.I forgive you my son because I don’t want to destroy your next home, but do follow my instructions that…Respect your elders in the rest of your life and avoid bad companies.Now let me go to my rest place. May Allah pour His showers of Blessings & Mercy on you…!!!” <<Your Mother…!!!>>

These were the last words of the mother which changed the rest of his whole life.But one thing is noticeable here that mothers loves her offspring from the very begining of its life till the departure and her begining as well as ending words last on prayers.

All that I am or hope to be, I owe to my mother. So

Do love your mother , never misbehave & disobey her because…

” YOUR HEAVEN LIES UNDER THE FEET OF YOUR MOTHER “
