[Machine] Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us that Abu al-Hasan al-Tarafi and Abu Muhammad al-Ka'bi narrated to us that Ismail ibn Qutaybah narrated to us that Yazid ibn Salih narrated to us that Bukayr ibn Ma'ruf narrated to us from Muqatil ibn Hayyan regarding His saying, "Test orphans when they reach marriageable age" [Surah An-Nisa: 6]. It means [testing] the guardians and trustees. He [Muqatil] said, "Inform them when they reach marriageable age, if you find them to be mature in religion and desire in getting married, and for the rectification of their property, then return their property to them" [Surah An-Nisa: 6].  

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الطَّرَائِفِيُّ وَأَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ الْكَعْبِيُّ قَالَا ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ ثنا يَزِيدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ثنا بُكَيْرُ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ مُقَاتِلِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ فِي قَوْلِهِ {وَابْتَلُوا الْيَتَامَى} [النساء 6] يَعْنِي الْأَوْلِيَاءَ وَالْأَوْصِيَاءَ يَقُولُ اخْبُرُوهُمْ إِذَا بَلَغُوا النِّكَاحَ {فَإِنْ آنَسْتُمْ مِنْهُمْ رُشْدًا} [النساء 6] فِي الدِّينِ وَالرَّغْبَةِ فِيهِ وَإِصْلَاحًا لِأَمْوَالِهِمْ {فَادْفَعُوا إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَالَهُمْ} [النساء 6]
