Calling Disbelieving Parents to the Oneness of Allah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner from outside this country says: My parents are disbelievers, and when I call them to tawhid (the oneness of Allah), they become upset about it. How should I deal with them, knowing that currently I am only calling them through good character?

Answer:
Yes, continue calling them with wisdom and good exhortation, and argue with what is best, with patience and persistence.
