Every religion and culture agrees about treating the parents respectfully. However the approach of Quran is unique.
Whenever Allah reminds the people about his obedience and worship, it is usually followed by the guidance about the obedience and respect for the parents.
For Example in Surah Luqman#14
Give thanks to me and to your parents.
Hence, we should not forget that jus as the right of Allah are important, similarly the rights of people are important. And among the people the rights of parents are foremost.
Allah has ordered and insisted on the people to treat the parents with great dignity and respect. Among the parents, mother has more rights than father.
The respect of mother is mandatory because Allah has ordered us so, Hence respect for the parents is incumbent upon a person. There are several Ahadith to further educate us about it.
