I dressed my young son in the ihram clothing sold for children, which has some stitching in it. Is this prescribed?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I took my young son with me during the 'Umrah and dressed him in the ihram clothing sold at the miqat for children. It has some stitching in it so that it does not fall off the child's body and leave him naked. Is this prescribed? And is it a valid garment?

The Shaykh:
Stitching.

The questioner:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
Stitching. Where is the stitching? Where is the place of the stitching? That is, is it made in the form of an izar? What they call the "tunora," which some shaykhs permit—may Allah guide them—this is not permissible, neither for the adult nor for the child; it is not permissible. However, if his intention is that the ihram garment for his son has a slit in it, and he stitched that slit, then there is no harm. Yes.
