Luke 9:59-62
He said to another man, "Follow me." But he replied, "Lord, first let me go and bury my father."
Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God."
Still another said, "I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say goodbye to my family."
Jesus replied, "No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God."
Im not interested in biblical narratives that deal with parents. This thread is on the quran. Furthermore, islam essentially states that the quran is not Biblically based. This is a Bible-free discussion.It is interesting when you compare it to the Torah which forbid a newly married man from even serving in the military in time of war.
