Should women be prevented from taking their children to the mosque?
Question

                Is it permissible to ban women from taking their children to the mosque with them for Taraweeh prayer?.
Praise be to Allah.
    Women should not be banned from bringing their children to 
    the mosque in Ramadaan, The Sunnah indicates that women used to come to the 
    mosque, bringing their children, at the time of the Prophet  (peace and 
    blessings of Allaah be upon him), because of the hadeeth “I start to pray, 
    intending to make it long, then I hear the crying of a child so I make it 
    short lest I cause hardship to his mother.” And the Prophet  (peace and 
    blessings of Allaah be upon him) carried Umaamah during an obligatory prayer 
    when he was leading the people in prayer in the mosque. 

    But they have to try to protect the mosque from najaasah 
    (impurities) and also pay attention to the children’s rights such as sleep 
    and so on. End quote.
