How to Teach a Deaf and Mute Child the Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner from Jordan, Muhammad Ahmad al-Qara'ah, asks in this question: How can a father teach his son, who is disabled in hearing and speech, the prayer, O Shaykh?

Answer:
He teaches him in the way he understands. If he cannot hear, he shows him by action: he prays with him, bows with him, prostrates with him, and rises with him. If he cannot see but can hear, he prays with him and lets him hear the takbir for bowing and rising from bowing, and so on, until he understands how to prostrate, how to bow, how to rise, and so on until the end of the prayer.
The point is: he makes him understand in the way he understands, by hearing, by action, by touch, whatever is possible. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh.
