Is it permissible to bury a Christian child in Muslim cemeteries?
It is not permissible to bury a Christian child in Muslim cemeteries because his ruling follows that of his parents in this world.

However, if a Muslim takes him as a captive, he follows the religion of the one who captured him and is then buried in Muslim cemeteries.
