Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a child who does not understand to stand in the row with his father in the congregational prayer?
The Shaykh:
Not understanding means he is not a discerning child.
The questioner:
The apparent ruling.
The Shaykh:
If he is a discerning child, yes, he stands in the row. But if he is not a discerning child, no, he does not fill the row.
