1. If there is only one mature boy, then he will counted among the non-Baaligh. If the non-mature boys are more in number, then it is Mustahabb to put them in the back Saff. However, nowadays, the children will be made to stand with the elders/adults when 2 or more children get together, they will cause harm to their and adult?s Salaat.

2. The above ruling will only apply to those child who can perform their Salaat and Wudhu perfectly. It is Makrooh to join the very young children into the adult Saff. Moreover, it is not even permissible to bring them into the Musjid. (Ahsanul Fataawa vol.3 pg.280)
