The answer

The mother takes precedence because her right is greater than anyone else's, both in life and after death. The proof of this is the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Who among people is most deserving of my good companionship?" He said: "Your mother." He said: "Then who?" He said: "Your mother." He said: "Then who?" He said: "Your mother."
