How to strike a ten-year-old child for prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the manner of striking a child who is ten years old? Is it a severe strike, or how is it done?

Answer:
He is struck with something that causes him pain, ten strikes or fewer, as a means of support with what causes him pain. He is not struck with a severe blow, nor is there leniency in the strike such that he does not feel pain; rather, the strike is moderate.
