The ruling on carrying a child during prayer and tawaf

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
From the questions of this questioner: (S. N) from Jeddah, she says: Your Eminence, what is the ruling on carrying a child during prayer, or tawaf, when he is wearing a diaper that contains impurity, but it has not passed through the outer clothes? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed with the daughter of Zaynab as the imam, while he was leading the people in prayer—(peace and blessings be upon him). So, if a child is carried during prayer out of necessity, or during tawaf, there is no blame on him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed with the daughter of Zaynab as the imam, and she was small. A child may not be safe from something coming out of him. So, if there is nothing apparent, and it is contained, there is nothing wrong with it. Praise be to Allah.

The presenter: May Allah reward you, Your Eminence.
