The Ruling on Waking Children for Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Should I wake my children who have not reached puberty for the Fajr prayer, or should I leave them until they are older?
Answer:
Wake them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Order your children to pray when they are seven years old, and beat them for it when they are ten.” Wake them for prayer when they reach the age of discernment, which is seven years old.
