Question

What is the ruling on the children of the polytheists in this world? Are they upon the Fitrah?

السؤال (بالعربية)

بماذا نحكم على صبيان المشركين في الدُّنيا؟ هل هم على الفطرة؟

Official Transcript (English)

The ruling on the children of the polytheists is the same as the ruling on their parents, as they follow them. If one of them dies, they are treated as non-Muslims; thus, the funeral prayer is not offered for them, they are not buried in Muslim graveyards, and they do not inherit from Muslims.

الجواب الكامل (باللغة العربية)

حكم صبيان المشركين حكم آبائهم، فهم تبعًا للأبوين، فلو مات فيعامل معاملة الكفَّار، فلا يصلَّى عليه ولا يدفن في مقابر المسلمين، ولا يرث المسلمين.
