Question

Where should minors stand in the Salaat rows according to the Maaliki Math-hab?

Answer

If the minor is such a child who understands and is able to differentiate between good and bad, sin and acts of virtue, then according to the Maaliki Math-hab he will be regarded as an adult for purposes of standing in the saff. However, if the minor lacks this sense of discernment, there is no specific rule regulating his standing position.
