Bayazid Bostami was a great saint. In his childhood he was a very obedient boy. He was especially obedient to his mother. Once Bayazid was reading on his table. It was dead at night. The surrounding atmosphere had a pin-drop silence of profound sleep.

His mother was also in deep sleep. Besides, she was ill. Suddenly his mother got up from sleep and asked Bayazid to give her a glass of water. Bayazid at once went to the pitcher. But unfortunately there was not a drop of water in it. There was no source of water nearby. So, Bayazid went to a distant fountain with the pitcher and brought water for his mother.

But by that time his mother was asleep again. Bayazid thought that he should not disturb his mother’s sleep. So, he stood beside his mother’s bed with a glass of water whole night. In the morning his mother woke up.

She was highly surprised seeing Bayazid with a glass of water beside her bed. Her heart was filled with a unique love for Bayazid. She embraced her son and prayed for him from the core of her heart.

Dear Rabiul,

How are you? I came to know about the kindness of your mother from your letter.

Mother is the greatest person in the world. There is no one like mother. Mother’s love is unique in this world. A mother can diefor a child. So we should be obedient to our mother.

All the great persons in the world were obedient to mother. They followed their mother’s order at any cost. If we read the pages of history books, we will see such evidence. So we should respect our mother and carry out their order in any way.

What about your feeling regarding this point? Please let me know.

Your loving friend,

Hamid
