The Ruling on Rewarding a Child for Breaking His Fast
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some mothers, Shaykh Salih, give their son a reward so that he will break his fast, and this child is fasting on the grounds that he is young and cannot manage it.
Answer:
This is a wronging of her child. If the child has fasted, she should help him complete the day, not break his fast. But this is due to ignorance. Otherwise, the Companions did not allow their children to break their fast; rather, they distracted them with games until they completed the day. Yes.
