Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: She is a Muslim woman, her father is an atheist, and her mother is a Christian, and they curse Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Her question is: How do I deal with these two parents?

Answer:
Deal with them by calling them to Allah and clarifying the truth to them. If they need assistance, and if showing dutifulness to them is required, treat them with kindness in this world,
But if they endeavor to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them but accompany them in [this] world with appropriate kindnessوَإِن جَاهَدَاكَ عَلَىٰ أَن تُشْرِكَ بِي مَا لَيْسَ لَكَ بِهِ عِلْمٌ فَلَا تُطِعْهُمَا وَصَاحِبْهُمَا فِي الدُّنْيَا مَعْرُوفًا
[Luqman 31:15]
