The Lion King directors Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff stated during a Lion King 10th Anniversary Reunion that it could be either Mufasa or Scar. Despite this "canon" claim, Nala would be related to Simba and Scar nor Mufasa acknowledge Nala as their daughter in the film so the mystery of who is Nala's father is left up to fanfiction.
Mufasa is Simba's father.
Mufasa, voiced by James Earl Jones, in Disney's 1994 The Lion King.
The main conflict in the Disney movie The Lion King is about Simba, the young lion who is heir to the throne of Pride Rock. Simba "can't wait to be king" until his father is killed when he is very young. His evil uncle Scar convinces him it was his fault, and SImba runs away from home. Simba grows up with Timon and Pumbaa in the jungle. But the entire time, Simba blames himself for his father's death. He chooses not to deal with the guilt and instead live the "hakuna matata" lifestyle of not worrying about anything. Until he meets his childhood friend, Nala. Then he runs into Rafiki. And finally, Simba is allowed to speak with his dead father. Both of his friends and his father convince Simba that a life of constantly running away from your problems is no life. Simba realizes that he has to face his problems, or they will never go away.
Simba as a cub dreamed of being king. His father, Mufasa, was soon killed by his evil uncle Scar. Scar tricked Simba into leaving the pridelands so he could become king. Scar told all the lionesses that Simba was killed along with his father. Simba grew up with Timon the meerkat and Pumbaa the warthog. Nala, Simba's childhood friend, found Simba while hunting. She explained the terrible condition that the pridelands were in because of Scar and convinces Simba to return. They return and overthrow Scar and Simba becomes the new king.
His father dies after saving him from a stampede of wildebeest, and as he cries over the father's body, his uncle convinces him that the father's death is his fault and that even his mother might not understand. Simba asks what can he do, and the uncle tells him to run far away and to never return. And so Simba left immediately.
