Question:

As Salam Aleikum!
BRR. Is child beating allowed in Islam? If it is, then in what extent and in what situations? Are there differences between the four madhabs about this issue? Could you please provide me some link in internet about children education in Islam?

Answer:
A`udhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajeem
Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmani ‘r-Raheem
wa `alaykum salam,
It is haram to hit anyone in the face including children. To hit them in a way that would leave a mark on the skin is also haram. So any admonishing has to be light.
