Along with not killing one's children for fear of poverty, not committing the fahisha/(anything that is abominable, morally reprehensible, in words or deeds) and not associating with God, voluntarily and benevolent goodness to parents is included amongst the major things that God harrama 6:151.
h-r-m means forbidding and forbidden to violate as in 7:33 or 22:30,27:91. The context decides and this verse is part of a whole passage listing in total 4 positive and 5 negative commands, as denoted with the jussive mood of the verbs, meaning that rather by starting with the idea that what will follow will be a list of prohibitions, the verse is saying that what will follow are the commands God made inviolable upon Muslims. It is placed among such important bounds forbidden to be transgressed in order to stress its weightiness.
