أحسن الله إليك Can we pray while holding the baby? Even if she is not crying? Or only if she is fussy and crying? Would you please clarify this matter to us as it is very dire for us to learn this.

‎Yes, you may pray while holding her, in fard or nafl, as the Prophet ﷺ‎ prayed carrying Umamah, putting her down when he prostrated and picking her up when he stood (agreed upon). Imam Ibn Baz said there is no harm in it, and Imam Ibn Uthaymin allowed it when she cries.
