Question 11605

Should children be stopped from coming to the mosque with their mothers for Taraaweeh, because they cause too much trouble and disruption?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

I asked Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on him) this question, and he replied:

 They should be allowed to come as it says in the ahaadeeth: “What is good for the earlier generation is good for the later generation.” And Allaah knows best.
