Mother:
Assalamu alaykum!
My question is about what a mother can do when during her pray her kid(s) starts to do something what (s)he should not and definitely she wants them to stop it but she is praying but she doesn't want to stop her pray. I thought clapping hands is fine, like in this Hadith: https://islamqa.info/en/20047
Sheikh Khaled Fekry:
If your child 👶 is in danger while u are praying , u could or you should get out of salah to rescue him .
If he did something which he shouldn't do whilst you are praying , u can raise your voice to get attention of people around you , to care of the child .
If u are praying in jamaha as ma''moom, you are allowed to applaud (clipping ) ,so the imam or other musaleen will get their attention to any thing happening.
Mother:
Jazakallah khayran but I have more questions...
1. What if I am praying alone and the children are not in danger but if they continue the thing what they should not so than sure they will be in danger...what should I do, still I can raise my voice up so the children will realise they should stop it???
2. What is Ma'moom?
Sheikh Khaled Fekry:
praying
a- before your salah , try to be sure your kids are safe , so they will not interrupt your praying .
b- during your salah ,if you feel something could happen to your children ,u can raise your voice ( in recitation or tasbeeh..)so the children realise they should stop .
c/ if there is any danger , u just leave the salah , to save your kids .👩👧👦
Ma'moom : means , your are praying behind an imam , i.e. Not alone
