The Ruling of a Baby’s Urine?

Question: 

What is the ruling of the baby’s urine who is one-year-old? 

Answer:

The majority of scholars in Islam are of the opinion that the sprinkling of pure water is sufficient to wash the urine as long as the male child is still nursing. If the male child eats solid food, its urine must be washed from the parts of the clothes and/or body where the impurities might have touched. It is worthy to note that the wudu’ (ablution) of the person who is touched by the baby’s impurities does not break nor become invalid.

Umm Qays bint Mohsin narrated, “I brought my young son, who had not started eating (ordinary food) to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) who took him and made him sit in his lap. The child urinated on the garment of the Prophet, so he asked for water and poured it over the soiled (area) and did not wash it.” (Al-Bukhari) 

`Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said concerning the urine of the child: “Sprinkle the urine of a boy and wash that of a girl.” (Authenticated by Al-Albani)

Qatadah said: “This applies so long as they are not eating food; if they are eating food then it must be washed in both cases.”
