Mother Calling Her Son back to Christianity

Answered as per Maliki Fiqh by BinBayyah.net

I am an Australian Muslim, and I live in Sidney with my elderly mother, who needs someone to take care of her. The problem is that she keeps calling me to return to Christianity. I am thinking of leaving her and moving out to another house in order not to be affected by her words. Is this the right decision?

Do not leave your mother, and keep on treating her well, but beware of falling prey to her temptations. Allah says, {Give thanks to Me and to your parents; unto Me is the final destination. But if they strive with you to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not, but behave with them in the world kindly, and follow the path of him who turns to Me in repentance and obedience} (Luqman:14 and 15).
