Prenosi se da je Ebu-Hurejre, r. a. , rekao: “Allahovom Poslaniku, (s. a. w. s. , ) došao je jedan čovjek i upitao ga: ´O Allahov Poslaniče! Ko je najpreči za moje lijepo druženje i ponašanje prema njemu? ´ Alejhiselam reče: ´Tvoja majka. ´ Čovjek tada reče: ´Ko poslije nje? ´ ´Tvoja majka´, odgovori on. ´Ko poslije nje? ´, ponovo upita čovjek. ´Tvoja majka´, ponovo odgovori Alejhisselam. Čovjek ponovo upita: ´Ko poslije nje? ´ Alejhisselam tada reče: ´Tvoj otac!´” (Muttefekun alejhi)
