How does a father put his young child, aged one or two, into the state of ihram?

Question : Regarding a young child, if his age is, for example, one or two years, and his father wants to put him into the state of ihram, how is that done?

Answer : I do not see that he should be put into the state of ihram, because in this era, as you and others know, we fall into severe difficulty, tightness, and fatigue, both for the child and for his guardian. The matter is nothing more than a recommended practice (sunnah). In fact, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not order the people to put their children into the state of ihram; rather, he knew that they were doing so on behalf of their children, so he left them to do it. What I see in this time is that the boys should be left as they are, and praise be to Allah, if they reach maturity, they will perform Hajj.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
