Disciplining the Young Child and His Imprisonment in Juvenile Detention Centers

Question:
Honorable Shaykh! If the pen is lifted, as in the hadith, for the young child until he grows up, what is the ruling on what we call juvenile detention centers and the imprisonment of a minor if he commits an act such as theft or others?

Answer:
Disciplining, the existence of disciplining the young child, if he is of discernment, because he is being raised and because he is accustomed to good morals. So, do not exaggerate in disciplining. As if, or with some sticks, do not exaggerate in disciplining. But do not burden him by striking him with a severe beating; strike him with a light strike, since he understands the punishment. This is a matter of appeasement, is it a matter of imprisonment? This is a matter of appeasement, and if he is excused or has a mental illness, then his confinement is for the removal of harm from people, or also for his treatment, his isolation for treatment, yes.
