the kids disturb the prayer and we dnt know to whome we should listen to quran or to their noise and specialy their moms nt asking them to be quiet, they r just jumping here and their, if their moms teach them how to stand next to them and listen carfully to Imam then this ban won't exist. last two days i was in the mosque for taraweeh and some kids were there juming and screeming and the prblm their moms nt talking to them and once the imam finishes 2 Rakaa the men started knoking at our wall to keep quiet them they sent them out.
I agree that the prophet SAW never ban kids from prayers in mosque but those kids used to come to learn how to pray and the current ones r coming becoz there is no one to take care of them at home, and if their moms having attention to teach them they would have make them stand next them and leave them in the back to play with other kids .
I should blame parents for this decision of ban.
