Hadith Number: 9005
حدثنا محمد بن جعفر ثنا شعبة عن عطاء بن السائب قال سمعت ابا عبد الرحمن السلمي يحدث ان رجلا امرته امه او ابوه او كلاهما قال شعبة يقول ذلك ان يطلق امراته فجعل عليه مائة محرر فاتى ابا الدرداء رضي الله عنه فإذا هو يصلي الضحى يطيلها فصلى ما بين الظهر والعصر فساله فقال له ابو الدرداء اوف بنذرك وبر والديك إني سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يقول الوالد اوسط باب الجنة فحافظ على الوالد او اترك
Abu Abdur Rahman Salmi narrates that a man was ordered by his mother, or his father, or both, to divorce his wife, but he vowed to free one hundred slaves if he divorced her. Then he came to Sayyiduna Abu Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him) while he was performing the Duha prayer at length. He also prayed between Zuhr and Asr. That man asked him a question. Sayyiduna Abu Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: Fulfill your vow and be good to your parents, because I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The father is the middle gate of Paradise; now it is up to you whether you protect that gate or waste it.
