So, when he does recognise the differing, so he would not be a weak one (of understanding)’. [15] عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الْمُسْتَضْعَفِ فَقَالَ هُوَ الَّذِي لَا يَهْتَدِي حِيلَةً إِلَى الْكُفْرِ فَيَكْفُرَ وَ لَا يَهْتَدِي سَبِيلًا إِلَى الْإِيمَانِ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُؤْمِنَ وَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَكْفُرَ فَهُمُ الصِّبْيَانُ وَ مَنْ كَانَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ وَ النِّسَاءِ عَلَى مِثْلِ عُقُولِ الصِّبْيَانِ مَرْفُوعٌ عَنْهُمُ الْقَلَمُ .
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Yunus, from one of his companions, from Zurara who said, ‘I asked Abu Ja’far -asws about the weak ones (of understanding). So he -asws said: ‘He is the one who is neither guided by a reason to the Kufr (disbelief) so he would disbelieve, nor is he guided by a way to the Emān . He neither has the capacity that he believes, nor does he have the capacity that he disbelieves. So, they are children.
And the ones from the men and the women who were upon a similar intellect of the children, the Pen (Recording of the deeds) would be Raised from them’.
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Jameel, from Zurara, from; Abu Ja’far -asws has said: ‘The weak ones (of understanding) are those who do not have the capacity to reason, nor are they guided to a way. They are not able upon a reason to the Emān , nor are they disbelieving (like) the children, and those of similar intellect to the children, from the men and the women’.
