Narrated Asma' bint Abu Bakr (ra): My mother came to me during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (saws) and she was a Mushrikah (polytheist, idolatress, pagan). I said to Allah's Messenger (saws) (seeking his verdict), My mother has come to and she desires to recieve a reward from me, shall I keep good relations with her ? The Prophet (saws) said, Yes, keep good relation with her.
