Carrying a child whom one is certain has ritual impurity on him during prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, many questions are asked about one topic, which is: if we are certain that the child has ritual impurity on him, is it permissible for the one praying to carry him?
The Shaykh:
No, if you are certain that there is ritual impurity on him, do not carry him. But the discussion is about what you are certain of regarding the presence of ritual impurity.
The questioner:
And likewise.
The Shaykh:
It will make you ritually impure. Perhaps if there is ritual impurity, it will make you ritually impure later, or it will make the mosque ritually impure. The hadiths that have passed mention evidence for the permissibility of children entering mosques, provided the worshippers are not bothered by them and they do not harm the mosque. There is no harm in that. Yes.
