Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

There are some points of your query that are not clear. We will advise on what we understand from your query.

When a child reaches an age of understanding, he/she should be trained on various aspects of Deen. That includes how to cleanse oneself, Wudhu, Ghusl, and how to clothe oneself. The general age of understanding such issues is around 7 years.

Parents know their children’s understanding better and they can make decisions accordingly. Girls should be trained to dress modestly and wear loose clothing.

We are not sure whether the question is from the mother or father. In the case of washing the daughter and inserting medication, that is the role of the mother. It is permissible for the mother to wash minor daughter and assist with medication.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
