4. We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan bin Ahmad bin Waleed, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Hussain ibn Hasan bn Aban, from Hussain bin Sa’eed, from Nadr bin Suwayd, and Fadala bin Ayub, all of them, from Musa bin Bikr, from Zurara, from Abu Ja’far, peace be upon him, that he said
I asked him about the saying of Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He: «except for the weakened ones from the men, women and children» (4:98), so he said: It is the one who does not purposely disbelieve, so he disbelieves and is not guided to the path of faith by which he believes, and so are children. Those from men and women who possess the same (level of) intellect as children, the pen [1] is raised from them.
حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا الحسين ابن الحسن بن أبان، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن النضر بن سويد، وفضالة بن أيوب جميعا، عن موسى بن بكر، عن زرارة، عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال
سألته عن قول الله عز وجل: " إلا المستضعفين من الرجال والنساء والولدان " فقال: هو الذي لا يستطيع الكفر فيكفر ولا يهتدي سبيل الايمان فيؤمن، والصبيان، ومن كان من الرجال والنساء على مثل عقول الصبيان مرفوع عنهم القلم.
