The ruling on a woman who slept with her child and found him dead in the morning without knowing the cause

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: A woman has a premature infant who is seven months old. On the seventh day of his life, she was breastfeeding him, then she fell asleep. When she woke up, she found that her son had died and departed this life. Please inform us—may Allah reward you—what is required of her by the Shari'ah?

Answer: If the situation is as described in the question, then she owes nothing; because she did not cause his death. And success is from Allah.
