Question

Is the non-Muslim father a mahram for his Muslim daughter?

Answer

He is a mahram in respect to marriage, i.e. he cannot marry his daughter, and in the degree of Hijaab observance. She may appear in front of him without covering her face. However, he will not be her mahram for a journey, or will he be her Wali.
