The ruling on children playing in front of their mother and around her during prayer, and one of them uncovering part of her hair

Question:
May Allah reward you. She says to me: I have small children, one is two years old and the other is nine months old, and they always play in front of me while I am praying, between me and the qiblah, so I am unable to keep them away. Then the girl uncovers some of my hair when I sit in prayer. What is the ruling on my prayer?

Answer:
Your prayer is valid, if Allah wills, and the passing of children or their playing around you does not harm you. As for uncovering the hair, you must hasten to cover it, because it is part of the 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered), and covering the 'awrah is one of the conditions for the validity of the prayer. If it becomes uncovered, or a child uncovers it, it is obligatory to hasten to cover it, and your prayer is valid, if Allah wills. Yes.
