Only when we see what Islam says about mothers and how are we commanded to treat them we can imagine what honour do they, and particularly mothers, have …

Your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him, and that you be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honour. (Al-Isra’ 17:23)

In Islam the status of parents is such a great one that the most beloved deeds to God is to treat them well. Learn here from Nouman Ali Khan some aspects of this status as he interprets this verse of the Qur’an.
