''Advise'':-/:-/- What is written in the Quran about motherhood?

"And We have enjoined upon man to be kind to hisparents; in pain did
his mother bear him, and in pain did she give him birth.The carrying
of a child to his weaning is thirty months. At length, when he reaches
the age of full strength and is forty years (old), he says, 'O my
Lord! Grant me that I may be grateful for Your favors, that You
bestowed me andupon both my parents; that I may do righteous deeds
that are acceptable to You; and be gracious to me with regards to (my
own) offspring. Surely, I turn to You repentant, and I wholly give
myself (to You)." (Qur'an 46:15)
Mothers are accorded a special place of honor and respect in Islam.
A man once came to Prophet Muhammad and asked, "O Messenger of God!
Who among the people is more worthy of my companionship?" The Prophet
replied, "Your mother." Then man then asked who next, the Prophet
replied "Your mother" again. The man repeated the question a third
time and got the same answer. The man asked once again, "Who next?"
Only then did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reply,
"Your father."
These, and other referencesin the Qur'an and incidents from the life
of the Prophet, clearly indicate the elevated status Islam has given
to mothers. A Muslim sees a mother as anicon of strength and courage,
tempered with compassion, kindness and love.
