Children's Recitations and the Ruling on Hanging Them on Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Regarding the daily recitations that must be memorized for children or read to them, what are the most prominent of these recitations?
Answer:
The awrad are supplications and seeking refuge, meaning you say, "I seek refuge in the words of Allah from the evil of what He created," and you ask Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) to protect and care for them. If the children are of age and understand what is being said, then they are the ones who recite these awrad for themselves. If they are young and have not reached the age of discernment, then their guardian supplicates for them in the morning and evening with what by which Allah protects them. As for hanging awrad on children, this is not permissible, because it is part of hanging amulets and veils. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good, Honorable Shaykh.
