Sometimes children realise after their parents have passed away that they did not look after them as well as they should have done, or did not treat them as well as they should have. Allah SWT has kindly told us about ways of making up for that negligence. There are two ways a person can try to make up for that negligence.
The first is that they should try to gift as much Thawab (eternal reward) as they can to their deceased parents. They should read as much Quran as they can, give charity, or pray Nafil (non-obligatory) Salah ( Namaz) and pray to Allah SWT to pass on the Thawab of these good deeds to their deceased parents.
The second is to treat their deceased parents' living relatives and friends with utmost respect, and really treat them as they should have treated their parents in their life.
By practicing these two things regularly InshaAllah Allah SWT will make up for any negligence that a person may have done towards his deceased parents in their life.
