Salaah of a person who carries a child and thereafter finds his clothes to be damp

Q: Could Mufti Saheb please tell me if Salaah should be repeated if one carried a child and afterwards found his clothes to be damp. Thinking the dampness to be sweat he performed Salaah. After that he found that the child's diaper had leaked and it had not been sweat.

A: He should repeat his namaaz.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
