How does a Muslim be dutiful to his disbelieving mother whose whereabouts he does not know?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says that his mother is a disbeliever and lives alone. He says, “I have not known where she lives or her phone number for years. What is required of me regarding being dutiful to her?” He asks you to pray for her guidance.

Answer:
Repent to Allah for this severance of ties. Maintain the relationship with your father, be dutiful to her, invite her to Islam, and treat her well. Yes.
