If a man is carrying a child during tawaf and sa'y, and the child is in ihram, is one tawaf sufficient?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a man is carrying a child during tawaf and sa'y, and the child is in ihram, is one tawaf sufficient, or must the man repeat the tawaf for himself and then for the child?

Answer:
It is sufficient for him to perform tawaf, intending the tawaf for himself while carrying the child with him; this counts as tawaf for the child being carried and tawaf for the one carrying him. There is no need for him to repeat it, because there is no evidence for that, and making things easy is required, especially on days of crowding and days of tightness.
