I have not benefitted much from my maternal and paternal parents. But the beloved (the Prophet) has done me immense favours.
Note: This is a very significant verse. It attracts the tradition: "None of you can be a true believer unless he holds me dearer than himself, his parents and his children". This is based on actual experience. Whereas the benefits from the parents and children are few and transitory and restricted to this world, those from the Prophet are immense and they are available in this world as well as in the Hereafter. Naturally such a benefactor is above comparison to the relatives, however dear they may be. As a parent of the higher life of a man he is definitely entitled to greater love, regard and obedience than the parents or as a matter of that all the relatives put together.

I did not receive favors from my paternal or maternal side,
It was from the side of the beloved that I was shown great favors.
