Every newborn is born upon Fitra, meaning Muslim. The influence of the parents makes them Jewish, Christian, or Majusian, as stated in the noble : "No child is born but upon Fitra, then his parents make him Jewish or Christian or Majusian." Therefore, disbelief is an incidental matter, and the original state of a human being is preparedness to accept Islam. So, whoever is born to Muslim parents is not merely imitating them, but rather remains upon the original state of their Fitra.
