Does a young boy break the prayer?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Can the hadith of 'Amr ibn Salimah be cited as evidence that a young boy does not break the row?
The Shaykh : No, it cannot be cited as evidence for that, because 'Amr was an early imam. However, if it is permissible for him to be in a row by himself, then it is even more permissible for him to be in a row with others. But the ruling of the issue you mentioned is that a young boy in the middle of a row does not break it.
The questioner : ... this?
The Shaykh : By Allah, the indication of the hadith regarding this is weak. Yes.
