IHRAM OF A MINOR
If a child is a minor, but can understand the idea and instructions, he shall don the Ihram himself and perform all the rites of Hajj or Umrah like as a grown up and matured. However if the child is too young the guardian shall put over him the Ihram.
If the child is too young and can not understand properly yet he dons Ihram himself and tries to perform the Hajj rites, his actions shall not be valid.
A grown up child should carry the small child in his lap for the performance of Hajj rites.
The guardian is bound to protect and keep him away from all those things and acts which are prohibited while in state of Ihram. However if some act is committed by mistake it will not involve compensation (Jaza) either from the child or from the guardian.
If the child is male he will don the similar Ihram as grown up people do. If a child leaves some rites or misses, no compensation shall be deemed due.
