The answer

If you are dutiful towards your mother and do not fall short in fulfilling her rights, then your lack of love for her does not harm you. However, do not surrender to feelings of hatred towards her. Instead, look at her good qualities and her right, which Allah has enjoined due to what she endured during pregnancy, childbirth, and upbringing.
