What is the ruling of the Shari'ah regarding children who do not pray?

Question:
Your Eminence, I love you with an intense love, and I am on the verge of weeping when I hear your words. Your Eminence, I have children who have wronged me regarding the Fajr prayer and others; they do not pray. What should I do with them? I have striven with them greatly. What is the Shari'ah ruling in this matter? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.

Answer:
May Allah love you for the sake of which you loved us, and I ask Allah to make us and you all loving one another for His Majesty. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: : My love becomes obligatory for those who love one another for My sake, who exchange gifts for My sake, who sit together for My sake, and who visit one another for My sake. All of this is among what Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) loves, and it is among the causes of Allah's love for the servant.
So the believer should be one who loves for the sake of Allah, hates for the sake of Allah, supports for the sake of Allah, and opposes for the sake of Allah. This is how the believer is.
And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: meaning: whenever he leaves the mosque, his heart remains attached to it until he performs the next prayer, , and the fifth is: that is: he was invited to commit unlawful sexual intercourse The sixth is: out of his eagerness for sincerity, and the seventh is: when he is alone, in his room, or in his house, or in any place, out of fear of Allah and exalting Him. These are the seven whom Allah will shade in His shade.
As for your children, my brother, who disobey you and do not pray, you must use the stick. Beat them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . What about when they reach puberty? If he reaches puberty and does not pray, he is to be killed. His case is referred to the one in authority and he is killed. The one who reaches the age of discernment and does not pray is referred to the authorities—to the court and the emirate—until he is killed if he does not respond and does not straighten out. And if he is below the age of puberty but has reached ten years of age, he is to be beaten. If you are unable to beat him, refer his case to the committee, to the court, to the emir of your land, so that they deal with him. And if you are able to keep him away, keep him away. Say to him: "Do not come to my house once, do not approach me, and I do not know you." If you are sincere in this, you will be saved from their evil. As for being lenient with them, it is of no benefit. If you are able to beat them, beat them until they straighten out. Refer their case to the authorities: to the Hisbah (market inspector), to the court, to the emirate, if that is beneficial. If you cannot, then keep them away from your house. They should not sit in your house at all. They should go until Allah guides them, or the Fire is before them.
Q: Pray for their guidance.
The Shaykh: We ask Allah for their guidance. We ask Allah for guidance for us and for them, and for every Muslim. This is not specific to you. I say this to all those present, and to everyone who hears this statement. My advice to everyone, and to every man or woman who hears this statement: be serious with your children, and be sincere with your children. Either they straighten out, or they are kept away, or their case is referred to the authorities. As for leaving them to not pray, this is a great abomination and an apparent disbelief—we seek refuge in Allah.
