This is permissible but not recommended as the rule is that the one memorizing more, leads the prayer. She is too young to pray and too young to demand such a thing. You should encourage her to learn more Quran and make that her incentive.

My daughter is 6 yrs old and have learnt to pray and can pray on her own. She has memorized half of the juz and I have memorized 2 juz. We pray at home in jamaa but she sometimes insists on leading the prayer. Can I let her lead me in prayer so that she feel happy and get confidence?

My question is on one’s concentration in salah. If one has bad khushua and while praying his mind is somewhere else, is his salah still valid?

Usually when I return home from work its almost maghrib time and after staying sometime at home I leave for Masjid. However, my kids are really cranky at that time and my wife wants me to support her with house chores and kids and pray at home as she is pregnant too. So, is it permissible in this case to pray at home while helping wife and kids.
