Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 3521 — When a child is told to pray
٣٥٢١ - حدثنا حفص عن محمد بن أبي يحيى عن امرأة منهم عن جدة لها: أن ⦗٢٦٤⦘ عمر مر بامرأة وهي توقظ صبيا لها يصلي وهو (يتلكأ) (١)، فقال: دعيه فليست عليه حتى يعقلها (٢).
Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) once passed by a woman who was waking her child for prayer while he was being stubborn. Sayyiduna Umar said to her: "Leave him; the prayer is not obligatory on him until he understands it."
