Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for fathers to bring their sons to the mosque when the child is four, five, or six years old?
Answer:
No. If he is not yet at the age where his prayer is valid, he should not be brought to the mosque unless there is a fear for his safety. If there is a fear for his safety, there is no harm in bringing him so that he can be kept safe. But if there is no fear for his safety, he should be left at home and not brought to the mosque. Yes.
