Question:
The questioner’s topic. He says: I am from a disbelieving land, and my mother is a disbeliever. He says: How should I treat her and deal with her? What is your advice to me in this?
Answer:
Honor her, honor her, and be dutiful to her, even if she is a disbeliever. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) commanded dutifulness to parents, even if they are disbelievers, but do not obey them in disobedience to Allah. And if they force you to[Al-'Ankabut 29:8], the father has a right, and even if he is a disbeliever, he is to be treated with dutifulness and kindness. Yes.
