13. Book of Penalties
١٣۔ كِتَابُ الْحُدُودِ
ʿThe Pen has been lifted from three; from the sleeper until he wakes up, from the crazy - or insane- one until he comes back to his senses, and from the minor until he grows up.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 956)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ عَنِ النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ وَعَنِ الصَّغِيرِ حَتَّى يَحْتَلِمَ وَعَنِ الْمَجْنُونِ حَتَّى يَعْقِلَ وَقَدْ قَالَ حَمَّادٌ أَيْضًا وَعَنِ الْمَعْتُوهِ حَتَّى يَعْقِلَ
