Sahih al-Bukhari 5973 (Book 78, Hadith 4) #5733
The Sin of Cursing Parents

SUMMARY: It is a great sin to curse one's parents or the parents of another person.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr: Allah's Messenger said".It is one of the greatest sins that a man should curse his parents". It was asked (by the people), "O Allah's Messenger ! How does a man curse his parents?" The Prophet said, "'The man abuses the father of another man and the latter abuses the father of the former and abuses his mother".
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ إِنَّ مِنْ أَكْبَرِ الْكَبَائِرِ أَنْ يَلْعَنَ الرَّجُلُ وَالِدَيْهِ ‏"‏‏.‏ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَكَيْفَ يَلْعَنُ الرَّجُلُ وَالِدَيْهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ يَسُبُّ الرَّجُلُ أَبَا الرَّجُلِ، فَيَسُبُّ أَبَاهُ، وَيَسُبُّ أَمَّهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that it is a great sin to curse one's own parents or the parents of another person. Allah's Messenger, Muhammad, taught that this act is considered one of the greatest sins in Islam. He further explained that this could be done by verbally abusing someone else's father and mother, which would then lead to them cursing your own father and mother in return. This hadith teaches us to respect our elders and not disrespect them in any way as it can lead to serious consequences both in this world and the hereafter. We should also be mindful when speaking about others' families so as not to cause any harm or hurt feelings.
