Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I have a son who is three years old, and in the memorization center there is a nursery for children where female teachers take care of the boys and girls together from this age up to the age of six. Is it permissible for me to enroll my son there given this situation?

Answer:
For a child who has not reached the age of discernment, it is obligatory for his parents to take custody of him, because no one is more merciful to him or more aware of his interests than a care facility. This is a right of the child. His father must not entrust him to anyone else except in cases of dire necessity. If he is compelled to do so, there is no harm in placing him in a care facility at the time when he is compelled to do so. However, in the absence of dire necessity, it is obligatory for him to keep his son, look after his interests, and attend to his needs himself. Yes.
