Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh Salih, may Allah benefit Islam and the Muslims through you. Among the questions that reached us is also this question from one of the brothers, who says: My son has not yet passed the age of eleven. Is he to be forced to perform the Fajr prayer?
Answer:
Yes, he is to be forced. This is an adolescent; perhaps he has reached puberty, or if he has not reached it, he is still an adolescent, so he is to be forced to pray the Fajr prayer. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes. May Allah bless you.
