Obviously, Ali is disappointed of his father's life, because he cannot see any sense or worth in living it. For Ali, Parvez only seems to live for "Western" pleasure (alcohol, prostitutes...), he does not see any philosophy of life behind Parvez's lifestyle. Ali simply does not understand his father's relationship to Bettina, for example.
Ali simply needs a perspective in life - and he has found one in religion. Praying and feeling solidarity to a big Muslim community comforts him and the strict rules give him a structure for life he can follow.
