13-3 My father, may God be pleased with him, narrated to us, he said
Saʿd b. ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us; from Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. ʿĪsā; from Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. Abī Naṣr al-Bazanṭī; from Abū al-Ḥusayn al-Khādim, the pearl merchant; from ʿAbd Allāh b. Sinān; from Abū ʿAbd Allāh (ʿas) about whom it was said by ʿAbd Allāh, "My father asked him while I was present about an orphan, when do they attain majority? He answered, 'When they reach puberty.' My father asked, 'And what is (the sign) of their puberty?' He answered, 'Having wet dreams.'" He continues, "My father then asked, 'Occasionally a boy reaches eighteen years, give or take, and they do not have wet dreams; what then?' He answered, 'When he has reached the age that things become mandatory for him to complete, he has attained majority, unless he is mentally incompetent or disabled."
13-3 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد ابن عيسى، عن أحمد بن محمد بن أبي نصر البزنطي، عن أبي الحسين الخادم بياع اللؤلؤ، عن عبد الله بن سنان، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال
سأله أبي وأنا حاضر عن اليتيم متى يجوز أمره قال: حتى يبلغ أشده، قال: وما أشده قال: الاحتلام، قال: قلت: قد يكون الغلام ابن ثمان عشرة سنة أو أقل أو أكثر ولا يحتلم؟ قال: إذا بلغ وكتب عليه الشئ جاز أمره إلا أن يكون سفيها أو ضعيفا
