Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man says: His wife works during the day, and his young children accompany him to the mosque,
The Shaykh:
Now it is the fathers who are raising the children, while the mothers have become like men, going out to work and to their jobs. The father is at home taking care of the children and raising them. The situation has been reversed, and there is no power or might except with Allah. He cannot let his children be neglected; he must look after them and protect them. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah keep you safe. This man with the young children says: If they are disturbing the worshippers, is it permissible for me to pray at home?
The Shaykh:
If you pray once at home, you may pray at home. Women pray at home. Pray at home, and leave the children with someone, or get someone for them, or if their sisters are at home, or arrange things with them. Do not let the prayer be neglected. Yes.
