The Placement of a Muslim Child with a Disbelieving Nanny

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: What is the ruling on placing a small Muslim child with a nanny or a disbelieving wet nurse?

Answer:
This is not permissible, because one cannot trust a disbeliever with it, and she may teach it harmful things or give it harmful things, because she is an enemy. Yes.
