The ruling on a woman bringing her young children to the Tarawih prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some women, Shaykh, bring their young children to the Tarawih prayer, especially in the women’s section during the Tarawih prayer, and in reality, this causes noise for the men and women praying.

Answer:
It is not permissible for her to bring her children if she cannot control them. If she can control them from playing around and disturbing the worshippers, there is no harm in bringing them with her. However, if she cannot control them and they harm the worshippers, it is not permissible for her to do so. She should pray in her home and look after her children, and she will receive reward for that, if Allah wills. Yes.
