“I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ‘The (funeral) prayer should be offered for a child.’”  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الطِّفْلُ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ  

“If a child utters a sound (after being born), the funeral prayer should be offered for him and (his relatives) may inherit from him.”  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا اسْتَهَلَّ الصَّبِيُّ صُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ وَوُرِثَ  

“The Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Offer the (funeral) prayer for your children, for they have gone ahead of you (i.e. to prepare your place in Paradise for you).”  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ صَلُّوا عَلَى أَطْفَالِكُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ مِنْ أَفْرَاطِكُمْ
