3105. It was narrated that Abdullâh bin 'Amr said: "A man came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and asked him for permission to go for Jihâd. He said: 'Are your parents alive?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then strive for their sake.'" (Sahîh)

Arabic text

3103 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، وَشُعْبَةَ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا حَبِيبُ بْنُ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَسْتَأْذِنُهُ فِي الْجِهَادِ فَقَالَ: «أَحَيٌّ وَالِدَاكَ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَفِيهِمَا فَجَاهِدْ»

Commentary

1. If one's staying at home is necessary, for instance, to look after one's parents, etc., then one should not proceed for Jihâd. 2. Then strive... means the fulfillment of the household obligations is more important for him than going for Jihâd. Therefore, even for fulfilling these obligations, he would be given the recompense of Jihâd.
