The ruling on carrying a child during prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah benefit you, Shaykh Salih. This questioner says: Our Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to carry a small child while he was praying. Is it permissible for me to carry my daughter who is crying while I am praying the obligatory prayer?

Answer:
It does not affect the prayer. This indicates that a person may carry a child, especially if the child needs to be carried for his safety and care; that is permissible in prayer. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
