Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: There is a mother who has a small daughter, six months old. This little girl was complaining of itching in her skin, so the girl’s grandmother, meaning the mother of the girl’s mother, told her daughter to tie the child’s hands so that she would not harm herself. She did so, but the child turned over on her face while her mother was away and died. What is the ruling on the mother and the grandmother? Knowing that the mother was not praying at that time, and the grandmother is now deceased. Please give us a ruling, may Allah grant you success?
Answer:
They owe nothing. They exerted effort and they owe nothing, because of keeping her hands from the razor. They owe nothing. Praise be to Allah. Yes. We ask Allah to reward us and them from them.
