Taking a young girl to the mosque to perform the congregational prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some of the worshippers say that they take their daughter, who is under six years old, to the mosque, and she lines up with the worshippers. Is there anything wrong with that?
Answer:
If he fears for her safety and carries her with him, there is nothing wrong with it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to carry Ummamah, the daughter of his daughter, while he was praying. When he stood up, he would carry her, and when he prostrated, he would put her down. So he carries her if he fears for her safety. Yes.
