Respect To A Kafir Father

A person who has a Non-Muslim father or even a Fasiq (sinful Muslim) father must understand that it is a command of Allah and thus duty-bound for a son or a daughter to respect him.

Rasulullah SAW said:

"The pleasure of Allah is in the pleasure of the father."

We must thus treat our father with respect and affection. All of his instructions that do not go against the Shari'ah of Islam must be obeyed.
