The Prophet ﷺ prayed while carrying Umamah

Written by Tim Baby Mo

كَانَ يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ حَامِلٌ أُمَامَةَ، فَإِذَا سَجَدَ وَضَعَهَا، وَإِذَا قَامَ حَمَلَهَا

Meaning

He prayed while carrying his granddaughter Umamah. When he prostrated, he set her down; when he stood, he carried her again.

Narrator: Abu Qatadah

Note for parents

The world's imam, in the most reverent place of worship, carried his small granddaughter. Prayer wasn't ruined by a child. True prayer welcomed the child — it didn't push her out.
