(79) Chapter. If a boy becomes a Muslim and then dies, should a funeral prayer be offered for him? Should Islam be explained to a boy (below the age of puberty)?
And Al-Hasan (al-Basri), Shuraih (al-Qadhi), Ibrahim (an-Nakha’i) and Qatada رحمهم الله said: “If one of the parents of the boy becomes a Muslim, then the boy will be with the Muslim parent.” And Ibn ‘Abbas رضي الله عنهما was with his mother (Umm Fadl Lubaba bint al-Harith رضي الله عنها) who was amongst the weak and the poor people, and was not with his father (Al-‘Abbas رضي الله عنه) who was on the religion of his nation. And said: “Islam is always Superior and never inferior.”
