Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : O Shaykh (may Allah preserve him), does the formula of supplication for a child in the funeral prayer differ from that for a non-adult child? And what is the formula, for example?
The Shaykh : The child referred to is one who has not reached puberty.
The questioner : Okay, and what is the formula?
The Shaykh : The formula is to supplicate for him and his parents, saying for example: "O Allah, make him a pioneer for his parents and a store of good deeds, and an intercessor whose intercession is accepted. O Allah, weigh down their scales with him and magnify their rewards with him, and join him with the righteous predecessors of the believers, and place him in the company of Ibrahim." This is what the jurists said, and it is a good supplication, even if some of it was not transmitted, but it is a good supplication.
The questioner : O Shaykh (may Allah reward you with good), a woman became pure in Ramadan and fasted two days, then the blood returned.
