Can a Child of Fifteen Lead the Taraaweeh salaah?

Q: Salaah-479: I was born on the 26th of June 1964 and will turn 15 according to the solar calendar on the first of Ramadhaan. Can I now lead the Taraaweeh salaah?

Answer: Since you will be turning 15 according to the solar calendar, you will certainly be 15 according to the lunar Hijri calendar. You may therefore lead the Taraaweeh salaah. In fact, you may have led the salaah even before this if the sign is of puberty (such as a wet dream) had become apparent. And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
