Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I have a child with whom I performed Hajj, and I did on his behalf the acts of Hajj that he was unable to do himself. However, I did not dress him in the clothes of ihram because they would not stay on him, as he was only seven days old. He asks: Is there anything required of me in this regard?
Answer:
Yes, a fidyah (ransom payment) is required of you because you dressed him in sewn clothing. It was obligatory for you to strip him of the sewn clothing and wrap him in a cloth.
