Is it imitating the disbelievers for women to use baby strollers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, some women have strollers in which they place their child and push it when they walk on the road. Is this considered imitating the disbelievers?

Answer:
No, it is for carrying and training the child, and if she wishes to use strollers, this is among the shared matters. It is not specific to the disbelievers; this is among the shared matters. Yes, just as we say about cars, these specific strollers are like the cars that people use to carry luggage. We say these are specific to the train, or rather, these are shared. They are shared interests of people. Yes, shared interests.
