Okay, so a wild video going around witnessing how a young boy rudely disturbed worshipers who were performing congregational prayers at a mosque had netizens shocked and enraged.

The 35-second clip showed the boy riding one of the female worshipers from behind as she bowed her head down to pray before proceeding to smack her and the woman next to her on the back of the head.

Netizens were, unsurprisingly, all over the case and asking where the kid’s parents were as well as why the person filming thought it was funny to laugh at the incident instead of stepping in to put a stop to it.

Yang rakam ni kenapa tak tarik je budak tu

And yeah, there were plenty of people who also thought that the kid needed to learn some respect, pronto, and even offered to discipline him themselves.

If that were me, budak tu panjat jer aku da flip dia kedepan bila nak sujud. Tak sia-sia aku tengok wrestling dapat jugak cuba move ni.

WWE warn don’t try this at home, bukan don’t try this at the masjid

Some also say that the video was more reasons why people shouldn’t bring their kids to the mosque.

Kalau budak ni autism ke apa aku harap parent dia tak perlu bawa surau sbb boleh jatuh pula hukum berdosa pd parent dia..solat je dkt rumah buat jemaah dkt rumah, jgn ayah beria nk g masjid tinggal semua dkt mak dia huhu

However, Islamic teachings encourage bringing children to mosques to foster a sense of community and instil religious values and practices.

Echoing this sentiment, Pahang Mufti, Datuk Seri Dr Abdul Rahman Osman once said that while children are welcome, parents must ensure that they remain quiet enough to not interrupt the prayers or disturb other worshipers.

If you’re a parent or guardian thinking about taking your children to the mosque for Ramadan, you’ll be pleased to know that many mosques nowadays offer a child-friendly environment and even child-care services throughout this sacred month.
