Sewing the ihram for young boys

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I performed 'Umrah a month ago with my two young sons. I had to sew their ihram so that it would stay on them and their 'awrah (parts of the body that must be covered) would not be exposed. He asks: Is there anything required of me for that?

Answer:
If you sewed it for them, meaning you sewed a slit, and this is a cross-stitch, there is no harm. But if you sewed it onto their bodies, meaning onto their skin, so that it would stay on their bodies and not fall off, then there is a fidyah (ransom payment) for you. You dressed them in sewn clothing, and this requires a fidyah. It is a choice between feeding six poor people, fasting for three days, or slaughtering a sheep in the Haram (sacred precinct) and distributing it to the poor. The charity and the slaughter must be in the Haram, but fasting is permissible anywhere. You are the one who fasts, not they, because they are young. You fast on their behalf. Yes.
