The Meaning of the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) Hadith: "Order your children to pray at the age of seven"]

The saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Order your children to pray at the age of seven" Does this mean taking them to the mosque for every one of the five prayers, or does it mean ordering them to pray after the prayer?
No.
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to order our children to pray at the age of seven, but he did not forbid us from taking them along before the age of seven. Before seven, do not order them; let them play.But if he said: I want to go to the mosque, so take him with you and accustom him to it.
