Position in the saff for a woman with baby in Masjid
Question:
If a woman has a baby, is it permissible for her to pray at the back of the line in a corner in the masjid and not in the lines with the other women for congregational salaah e.g. Taraweeh? Reason being the child may lie down and disrupt the line or disturb others etc.
Looking forward to your response.
Answer:
Salaams,
In the case, she can pray at the end of the last line and put the baby next to her. If she fears that this may cause problems for the other Musalis, then she can pray at the back of the line in a corner in the masjid.
And Allah knows best,
