"إذا بَلَغَ الغلامُ سَبْعَ سِنينَ فأْمروهُ بالصَّلاةِ، فاذَا بلغَ عَشْرًا فاضْربوه عليها.

"عَلِّمُوا أَوْلادَكُم الصَّلاةَ إِذا بَلَغُوا سَبعًا، واضْرِبوهُم عَلَيهَا إِذَا بَلَغُوا عَشْرًا، وَفَرِّقُوا بَينَهُم في الْمَضَاجع".

["مُرُوا الصَّبيَّ بالصَّلاةِ إِذَا بلَغ سَبع سِنِينَ] (*)، وإذَا بَلَغَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ فَاضْربُوه عَلَيهَا".
