The Ihram of a Child and the Prohibitions of Ihram for Him

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, sometimes children are pleased and they compete in racing, so if they are called to everything, if the iqamah is called, is it possible for the child to wear his regular clothes or is it not possible? And what is required of him if he cannot wear them?

Answer:
It is obligatory to complete the 'Umrah. If he intended the 'Umrah, or his guardian intended it on his behalf, he must complete it. If he neglects any of the prohibitions of ihram, he is prevented from doing so; he is stripped of the sewn garment. If he wears the sewn garment, it is removed from him and the clothes of ihram are put back on him. So it is his guardian who watches over him and keeps him away from perfume and keeps him away from the prohibitions. Yes. And for that, the guardian receives the reward. From what does he receive the reward? From the fact that he performed this duty. And you have a reward? Yes.
