Prohibiting young children from the front row

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on preventing young children from sitting in the front row, given that they have advanced to it?

Answer:
If the child is of discerning age and has taken a place in the mosque, he is not to be removed from it; he has the stronger right to it. Yes.
