Question: Noble shaykh, is it permissible to kiss the [fore]head of a parent if he only prays sometimes, or not at all?
Response: This is not permissible, because [doing] this is from [the acts of] love. Kissing is from [the acts of] love, so it is not permissible to kiss him.
[That said] however, this does not prevent you from being good towards him. Being good towards him in worldly matters.
As for displays of love such as kissing his [fore]head and the like, then that is not permissible.
Yes.
