[Machine] To receive a fool who does not know how to read what I wrote to him and then wrote to him, as for the orphan, if he reaches puberty and shows signs of maturity, then he is no longer considered an orphan. As for the children, if you possess knowledge about them that Khidr possessed, if not, then do not kill them. As for the slaves, they are worthy of care. As for the women, they used to take care of the wounded and provide water. As for the fifth, we assume it belongs to us, but our people claim it does not belong to us.  

الطبراني:١٠٨٣١حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ الْأَزْدِيُّ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ثنا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الْفَزَارِيُّ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنِ الْمُخْتَارِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ قَالَ كَتَبَ نَجْدَةُ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ يَتِيمٍ مَتَى يَنْقَطِعُ عَنْهُ الْيُتْمُ وَعَنْ قَتْلِ الْوِلْدَانِ وَعَنِ الْمَمْلُوكِ أَلَهُ مِنَ الْفَيْءِ شَيْءٌ؟ وَعَنِ الْخُمْسِ لِمَنْ هُوَ؟ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ لَوْلَا

أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أُحْمُوقَةً مَا كَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ أَمَّا الْيَتِيمُ فَإِذَا احْتَلَمَ وَأُونِسَ مِنْهُ رُشْدٌ فَقَدِ انْقَطَعَ عَنْهُ الْيُتْمُ وَأَمَّا الْوِلْدَانُ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ فِيهِمْ مَا عَلِمَ الْخَضِرُ وَإِلَّا فَلَا تَقْتُلْهُمْ وَأَمَّا الْمَمْلُوكُ فَقَدْ كَانَ يُحْذَى لَهُ وَأَمَّا النِّسَاءُ فَقَدْ كُنَّ يُدَاوِينَ الْجَرْحَى وَيَسْقِينَ الْمَاءَ وَأَمَّا الْخُمُسُ فَنَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ لَنَا وَيَزْعُمُ قَوْمُنَا أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَنَا
