Does the prayer become void if a child whose diaper is soiled with urine or feces touches the prayer rug?

Your prayer is valid, and the child sitting on the prayer rug does not harm it. The presence of impurity on the edge of the rug does not affect the validity of the prayer, as long as the place where you prostrate is pure. Able-bodied men must perform the prayer in congregation.
