Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: If one's parents are disbelievers, is it permissible to love them with natural love?
Answer:
Natural love is an easy matter; it is an easy matter. It is not by his choice; this is a love that passes over him against his will; it is not by his choice. Rather, religious love is what is not permissible except for the believers. Yes.[Al-Ma'idah 5:55-56] The love of worship is for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). The love of faith and the believers is subordinate to the love of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.

(55) Your ally is none but Allah and [therefore] His Messenger and those who have believed - those who establish prayer and give zakah, and they bow [in worship]. (56) And whoever is an ally of Allah and His Messenger and those who have believed - indeed, the party of Allah - they will be the predominant.
إِنَّمَا وَلِيُّكُمُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا الَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَهُمْ رَاكِعُونَ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا فَإِنَّ حِزْبَ اللَّهِ هُمُ الْغَالِبُونَ
